our first guest. I’ll see you then then. with we’re out this breaking news
police chase that has seemingly
to an end, but it looks like one
of the suspects in the vehicle
is now running police. Let me
bring you up to speed what we
are looking at, what we watched
unfolding here in our NEWSROOM.
So this is ending or trying end,
at least at West Commercial
Boulevard. What we understand is
that this started in Miami
County, a possible armed robbery
that took place. We saw several
people in a white Lexus, an LC
500, a high performing Lexus
take police on a chase county by
county on the turnpike going
northbound and then at one point
going southbound off on West
Commercial Boulevard. But at
what you’re seeing right now,
one of those suspects in the
vehicle ran out of a car jumping
the water and now trying to
escape the people involved,
doing everything they can to and
evade police. Now We mentioned
this chase started with those
suspects in a white lax this at
one point they got out of that
car and ended up getting a Tesla
and tried to get away from
police. That didn’t happen when
police them they got out of car
and are now trying to run from
police. So this is just off of
west Boulevard and it looks like
at least one of them is running
through a we did see several,
though so at least one of them
as we’re keeping an eye here
from Sky is running through this
neighborhood trying to get away
from. We can also let you know
that while we’ve been monitoring
this the newsroom we did see at
1.1 of the suspect acts with a
weapon. So this has quite a
scene that is unfolding here
right in Broward County. But we
do understand. And this started
in county. These suspects
leading police on a chase on the
turnpike, Palm Beach County. At
one point and then heading back
down to Broward. But we’re
monitor doing this right now
because we see this person is
trying to get away from police.
We’ve got on them and we have no
doubt that police has eyes on
them as well. But really trying
to do everything he can to away
from police running out of that
, jumping into a canal and then
walking through a neighborhood.
So again, we are working get
details on exactly this started
and why this all ended
unfolding. But we do understand
from we’re hearing from police
that this may have been some
sort of robbery that took place
. And then this high speed chase
unfolded. But we can tell you
that from what we’ve been able
to see, the people in this doing
everything they to get away from
police saw them weaving in and
out of traffic, driving at a
very high of speed at one point,
getting out of the Lexus and
carjacking a Tesla. When that
didn’t work, we them all try to
get out of that car and, make a
run for it. We at least have
been watching at least one
person who was involved who is
running from police and is this
neighborhood. This is just off
of West Commercial Boulevard to
pinpoint an exact location, this
neighborhood. But if this is an
area you’re familiar with,
you’re looking at this
neighborhood just best that you
stay indoors right now, because
we can tell you that there is an
active pursuit that is going on.
We did have eyes on that suspect
. We are trying to see if we can
locate. But look, we’ve got a
police, okay? Police arriving
looks like they may see this
person is so we’re watching this
unfold for you to see exactly
what is happening here. I can
also tell you we’ve seen
multiple involved in this. We
did see Miami Dade police, we’ve
seen BSO. We’ve seen FHP
involved in this chase. So it
looks like it’s really an effort
between all counties to try to
get this under control. You are
looking at right now an active
police pursuit. It looks like we
are not able to get a good shot
. That person we saw at one
point swimming to get away from
police, then through the
neighborhood, then sort of
trying to walk between houses
and do their best to hide. But
In many cases, police do have up
above as well so it is a very
hard situation to really run
from police in these situations
but we can see that they’ve
arrived on the scene this
neighborhood and they either
know where the suspect is or
they’re looking around in this
general area to see if they can
spot this. Again, we’re working
to get details exactly what what
occurred. We know this started
in Miami-Dade county. We
understand there may have been
two people involved in this, at
least person may already be
under arrest. We’re just
monitoring this person we saw
who got out of the car and made
a run for it. So Possibly two
people involved, at least one of
them, we believe, been
apprehended by police. But it
was that second person that we
saw it all unfolding here on
Local ten when we saw them run
out of that Tesla into the canal
, swimming across it to get into
this neighborhood and a run for
it. But it does look like police
are arriving on the scene we
also see a K-9 unit arrived as
well, no doubt trying, to get a
scent of that person to see if
they can find him. But we
watching the suspect running and
it does seem like this house, at
least vicinity of this house,
should be where. He is because
we haven’t seen any other sites
of since he made a run for it in
this neighborhood. So we are
watching this right now from Sky
ten. Oh, all this taking place
just off West Commercial
Boulevard. We will try to get
you an exact street number of
this neighborhood is but we do
know was just off of west
commercial Boulevard was on the
turnpike getting off and that is
seemingly where all of this is
happening in this moment, it
looks like more and more police
arriving in this area and looks
like they’re trying to this
suspect. And no doubt if the
suspect is near this house, it
seem like they are focused in on
this house. If this suspect is
hiding around this house, the
police have definitely got this
person cornered. So We are
watching this with you and
course, it is a delicate
situation. We do want to make
sure that we are not impeding
officer’s job and trying to get
this person into custody for
what we’ve been able to see this
chase again, starting in
Miami-Dade County going all the
way to Broward County. And at
one point even reaching Palm
Beach County. That was when the
suspects were in a Lexus LC 500.
If you’re familiar that is a
very high performance Lexus. So
we saw this chase go to pretty
high speeds as this person or
these persons were trying to run
from police at some point they
to head southbound on the
turnpike and then got out of the
Lexus carjacking a Tesla but
didn’t get very far there police
were able to corner them. One
person we understand apprehended
but that other suspect we
believe to be involved somewhere
in this area as. Police try to
look their guy. If this is your
neighborhood again trying to get
the exact address for you. But
this just off of West Commercial
that’s off from the turnpike
heading west. This neighborhood
, if this is part of if you live
in this neighborhood or, you
know, somebody who lives in this
neighborhood, we really advise
that you stay indoors, call up
anyone, you know, who may be in
this neighborhood to stay
indoors. There is very much an
active police pursuit going on
at this moment. We did see in
the case when they got out of
that Lexus and that Tesla, we
did a weapon. So we want to let
know about that. We’re we’re
still of course monitoring this
situation, though, but it like
police are hanging back. They
may know where this person is
trying to figure out exact where
this suspect be. Janice, I’m
going to let you get some
information from the desk and
I’m going to pick it up here for
a quick second as you take a
breath you are this is going to
be west of the in the Commercial
Boulevard area. A woman, in this
area alerting police to one of
the suspects, two people in, an
LLC 500 Lexus, taking police on
a high speed chase up Broward
into Palm Beach County, getting
off of the Florida turnpike,
trying carjack one individual as
they’re getting the turnpike,
they are unsuccessful. Getting
back on to the turnpike, getting
off of the turnpike at
Commercial Boulevard at
intersection of Rock Island and
Boulevard at gunpoint they
carjack in a Tesla police box
them and they actually get
through the neighborhood one is
in custody one is in this area
Janice more information from the
news desk. It’s all coming in
right now so we can confirm this
started in Miami-Dade County. It
was a carjacking where two men
in the car with AK 47. And of
course, it’s now ending in
Broward, like you said, West
Boulevard, Rock Island Road. We
have a combination. Miami-Dade
police and FHP involved in this
case. This began actually the
city of North Miami. It was
North Miami that called police
to assist in this case. But we
can let know that this started
in city of North Miami. It was
carjacking two men involved. We
saw that ourselves, Jeff, when
we were monitor this, that there
were weapons 47 as we saw them
carjack Tesla at gunpoint. One
person has been apprehended, but
it is that second person that
police now looking for and
trying bring in without incident
. Why is the guy I believe that
was in the Tesla that the Tesla
and ran the neighborhood now a
police pickup truck did smash
that Tesla police him in he was
armed he did use an AK 40 well a
high power weapon he that to get
the individual the driver out of
the Tesla in area of commercial
boulevard and Rock Island the
did get out he then up that
Tesla he was surrounded by
police you see police there they
believe likely in this house
maybe even in that garage right
there. You see they are using
that car as a that police car
are and have that home
surrounded there. That is the
Broward Sheriff’s Office there.
They have K-9 as. Well, and they
are using that vehicle as a we
did see a woman out and point to
that area saying that there’s an
individual there, did swim
across a canal he was wearing a
black maybe a hoodie, did take
that off of swimmer, I believe
he swam some kind of canal and
went into this neighborhood. If
you see a chopper above your
house or are in area, you were
advised to stay because there is
one suspect, I believe when he
fled, he did not have that high
powered rifle in his hand. We
did see it when he that Tesla
and Jeff you seeing commercial
and Rock Island road so would
really be the Tamarack area to
try to help and give people
perspective of where this may be
happening of course if you’re
watching this with us joining us
live right now if this your
neighborhood or neighborhood
you’re familiar with, you’re
going to want to stay indoors.
You could see there using that
car. You said, Jeff, as a shield
. This is someone who clearly is
doing everything in his to try
and get away police not only
running from police via and
leading them on a high speed but
then getting out of the car,
swimming through the canal,
running through this
neighborhood. And it seems he is
somewhere around this home and
they’re trying to end all of
this, of course, without
incident and trying to ended
peacefully but if this is part
of your neighborhood, if you
know anyone who lives here, stay
indoors because this very much
an active situation and police
have their guns drawn. They are
trying to bring this suspect in
as safely as they can which is
which it’s been quite a journey
for them so far. All of this
starting in North at one point
getting as far north as Palm
County before the suspects
headed back down south and are
now in the Tamarac area. So it
went as far as glades he got off
in Glades. So here is we’ve been
talking about that is a police
pickup truck and there you go.
You see that it of an individual
fleeing. He is wearing black. He
did take that fleeing through
the neighborhood and there you
see he’s taking off shoes, going
through the that is the
individual we believe in the
house to your left of your
screen there, the Broward
Sheriff’s Office, the deputies
there have that home surround
did when he that Tesla before
that police pickup smashed into
it he did the driver of that
Tesla. He did have a high
powered looked like from the air
a high powered aimed at the
driver forcing driver out now
before that a look and we could
see Jeff he is backing backing
up slowly. Hands in the so looks
like this will and it looks like
they’ve got the take down here
so we saw this all unfold you
mentioned as we saw that video
side by side. He took off his
shoes. He took off his made a
run for it. Now, just seems to
be in his shorts. All of this
ending in this neighborhood West
Commercial Boulevard rock Island
Road in the Tamarack area. But
it looks like they finally were
to get that suspect to. Really,
just stop trying to run. He
backed away slowly. Police got
him under arrest. So to see that
this situation is at least
ending without injuries in this
situation, we know could have
ended very differently. So looks
like they’ve got their guy.
Looks like they have their guy.
At this point. We don’t know if
shots were fired there on
commercial because the police
did see that high powered rifle
and that carjack there in that
Tesla. FHP was on the scene
there on Commercial Boulevard.
Again, he is in custody now,
both in custody this high chase,
if you’re not familiar with an
LC 500 Lexus, it is a very fast,
high performance vehicle. These
two individuals led police, a
high speed chase up the turnpike
Glades Road and, then back down
into Broward County Aviation up
above the entire time. But they
were driving in and out of
traffic. Several times on the
wrong side of the road going
down Lyons Road into back into
Broward County area from Palm
Beach. And we want to go ahead
and just just really quick show
side by side video if we can.
Again to show you as this person
is placed under arrest, we want
to show, if we can, that side by
side video of what unfolded
here, because It was quite a
remarkable scene to watch. Jeff
you mentioned saw him get out of
that Tesla. He had recently
running across to this canal,
taking off his hoodie, taking
his shoes. We’re going to see
him jump into the swim across
very fast and then ending up in
a neighborhood running through
the neighborhood trying his best
to hide from police but no match
because we’re up in the air
police were up in the air, too.
They had their eye on their guy
the whole time and it took
really a matter of minutes
before police were able to
surround the home where he was
trying to hide, trying to run.
But it was just no police were
able to get him. He is under
arrest. And again there is
another person under arrest. We
there are two people involved in
this. They’re able to arrest the
first person when this scene
happened, it was just one other
who ended up into this
neighborhood. So they do have at
least two people in custody. We
believe it was those two people
in volved in a carjacking that
started in the city of North
Miami. It was North Miami that
then called Miami Dade police to
assist as was involved Broward
was involved. This was an all
hands deck situation to try get
this under control. And of
course get this person and the
other suspect into custody
safely. And there you see that
suspect behind vehicle right
there. Fleeing from police and
coming out of that house. Again,
a neighbor alerting police to
him hiding in that house in
Broward. Deputies have now in
custody as well as another
individual taken into custody in
the area of Rock Island Road and
Commercial Boulevard. Only one
of the suspects, the suspect
that you see there behind, that
police car the Tesla of the
other suspect, fled in another
and was taken into custody. But
by the time they got to Rock
Island and Commercial Boulevard
, they were surrounded by police
this chase had been going on for
at a half hour, if not more. And
Aviation was up above the entire
time. Yeah, they had their eyes
on that Lexus and then had their
eyes not only on the suspect who
took the Tesla, but The other
one, they knew exactly to find
these two men involved. And I
have to say quite frightening to
watch, especially what we saw
them get out of that Lexus and
then carjacking the Tesla
gunpoint, what with their guns
drawn, quite a terrifying to
watch unfold here as we were
watching because we know how
quickly these situations can
take a for the worse so it was
quite a frightening moment to
see them that weapon and getting
or he got into the Tesla but the
quite a scene to unfold but this
is we’re going to continue to
monitor monitor for you
throughout afternoon again a
police coming to an end in this
and Tamarack people in custody.
We’re going to have so much more
for on local ten news starting
