On Monday evening in Leisure City, an unmarked police car detected a stolen sports motorbike being ridden by Ezequiel Brown, 44. Despite being recognized and ordered to stop, Brown refused and fled recklessly.
The chase began near Southwest 152nd Avenue and Lincoln Drive when detectives tried to use “police emergency equipment” on the unmarked car. However, Brown continued to speed away, looking back at the detectives multiple times. He eventually abandoned the motorbike near Southwest 288 Street and Kentucky Road, where he was apprehended by the detectives.
According to arrest records released on Tuesday, Brown’s license had been suspended on March 11. He was arrested shortly before 7 p.m. on Monday and booked into the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center after midnight on Tuesday. In court, he faced charges stemming from four cases, including grand theft, fleeing and eluding police, driving with a suspended license, and reckless driving. His bond was set at $5,300, and Miami-Dade County Circuit Judge Laura Maria Gonzalez-Marques presided over the case. To stay informed with regular breaking news alerts, visit WPLG Local10.com.
