Police chase starts in Kendall, ends in Fort Lauderdale
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Two carjackers stole two luxury cars from a home on Wednesday afternoon in southern Miami-Dade County and fled to Broward County, police said.
The men stole a red Mercedes-Benz G 550 sports utility vehicle and a black Rolls Royce SUV from a home in the area of Southwest 97 Terrace and 93 Avenue in Kendall, police said.
There was a police pursuit and one of the carjackers got away, according to Detective Chris Thomas, a spokesman for the Miami-Dade Police Department.
The driver of the stolen Mercedes-Benz G 550 was speeding on Interstate 95, exited at Stirling Road, took a red light, decided to get back on I-95, nearly hit a car soon after while changing lanes, and kept on going.
The driver of the Mercedes-Benz G 550 continued swerving through traffic while speeding northbound on I-95.
Police helicopters from Miami-Dade and Broward were involved in the chase and detectives recovered both the Mercedes-Benz and the Rolls Royce after the carjackers abandoned them.
