NORTH MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - A South Florida man faced a judge one day after he was arrested for allegedly taking Broward Sheriff’s Office deputies on a cross-county pursuit that led to a bailout on Interstate 95 and multiple crashes in North Miami-Dade.
Twenty-five-year-old Tyrese Delva attended a bond hearing on Friday in connection to the chaotic chain of events.
“Judge Mr. Delva, at this time does not work. He’s going to have to rely on his [inaudible]. He doesn’t really know how much he can afford, but it’s not that much,” said a defense attorney.
Investigators said this all began on Thursday when BSO deputies they responded to a call about shots fired on Southwest 19th Street in West Park.
Deputies said they saw a car speed off from the area, which prompted them to follow it south on I-95, causing Delva to crash several times as he tried to elude them.
“Broward County followed a black Nissan automobile into Dade County,” said 7Skyforce’s Ralph Rayburn.
Once they crossed into Dade County, cellphone video showed the moment two people ditched the Nissan on the highway and ran across several lanes of traffic. The whole ordeal caused a traffic nightmare.
“The people in the vehicle, an adult male and female, both bailed out of the vehicle and ran across a construction area at 151 Street and I-95,” said Rayburn. “You can see the road, the HOV lane littered with vehicles there.”
Authorities apprehended the woman a short time after the bailout. Meanwhile, Delva tried to get away by hiding in a neighborhood nearby. Several agencies swarmed the area, eventually finding Delva in a house off Northwest Seventh Avenue.
A witness saw police closing in on Delva.
“I saw the dog going inside and trying to look for him. They caught him inside,” said witness Max Jean.
Deputies released the woman without any charges.
Delva is now facing charges of fleeing and eluding police with disregard for safety and resisting arrest. He was given a $15,500 bond in relation to the police pursuit but he has not been charged in connection to the alleged shooting.
