DAVIE, FLA. (WSVN) - Four people were taken into custody after a police pursuit that began in Miami-Dade County ended in a crash and bailout in Davie on Tuesday afternoon.
Aerial footage from 7Skyforce showed several people fleeing a black vehicle near Southwest 49th Street and Davie Road, scattering in different directions as officers pursued them on foot.
According to 7News’ Ralph Rayburn, the suspects were involved in an armed robbery. Their vehicle crashed at Davie Road and Griffin Road before they attempted to escape.
Broward Sheriff’s Office said the robbery occurred sometime between Monday night and Tuesday morning. After an investigation, deputies established a suspect vehicle and tried to conduct a traffic stop on the car, but the suspects drove off, prompting a pursuit.
The four suspects were swiftly apprehended and taken into custody. One was transported to HCA Florida University Hospital.
They are currently being held in the Broward County Jail awaiting to appear before a judge on Wednesday.
Traffic has since been cleared to open after the area was shut down for a few hours following the crash.
