Though stupid criminals, trying to elude police, you can literally see almost every day. I see it as often as I want to, anyway.
So The Other McCain, has gotten me in the habit of watching police chases. You generally think, "What the F- were they thinking?" But then if they were smart they wouldn't be a on YouTube video of a police chase. There are often crashes, sometimes PIT maneuvers, but this is a new one on me.
Police Chases Florida Man With Kids In the Vehicle - Pasco Sheriff's Office Nov. 17-2020 is a video of a car chase that ends with the bad-guy driving into a lake in a Florida trailer park. And there is some video shot by a resident of the trailer park; the commentary from that section of the video is priceless. And yes, he drove into a lake with 2 kids in the car. The only thing missing was an alligator.
Are we suprised that it is Florida Man?
Pasco County is just north of Tampa and Clearwater, Florida.
And of course the idiot who tried to run with two kids in the car is known to police. Video: Florida chase ends with car in pond, 2 children rescued.
The driver, identified as Jonathan Mark DeLoach, 30, is a known drug dealer and had several warrants out for his arrest, according to the affidavit.
DeLoach was arrested on several charges, including child abuse, possession of methamphetamine, driving with a suspended licens (habitual offender), fleeing to elude and reckless driving.
Sadly, felony stupidity is not something the Florida authorities can charge him with. Though one of residents of the trailer park can be heard saying he would like to punch that guy in the face for endangering kids.
The kids were cold and traumatized, but otherwise unhurt.
