WEST MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - A driver who led multiple law enforcement agencies on a chase through parts of Broward and Miami-Dade counties has been taken into custody.
7SkyForce HD hovered over the pursuit along University Drive in Davie at around 6 p.m., Wednesday, where a silver Mercedes-Benz with dark tinted windows could be seen making several U-turns.
Aerial footage captured the vehicle traveling southbound along Florida’s Turnpike near Sheridan Street at speeds in excess of 100 mph.
According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office, deputies went after the vehicle following a shots fired call near State Road 7 and Kimberly Boulevard in North Lauderdale.
Authorities said the incident began as a fight between two drivers caught up in an apparent road rage incident.
From there, the driver of the Mercedes-Benz did not stop for deputies and took off, and they soon gave chase.
At around 6:20 p.m., the vehicle came to a stop in West Miami-Dade on the Turnpike extension, and the driver got out with his hands in the air.
Authorities directed the man to walk backwards towards them before taking him into custody.
Not long after, the Mercedes-Benz was towed from the scene of the pursuit’s end.
It remains unclear what charges the driver may face.
No injuries were reported in either the shooting or the chase, BSO said.
