Florida Highway Patrol announced the arrest of three suspects possibly involved in a string of robberies, that also included grand theft auto.

Dajohn Kemon Reed, 19, Caleb Christopher Reed, 20, and Horace Jerome Ellis, 21, were arrested by FHP for multiple felonies, to include, reckless driving, fleeing, and eluding, grand theft auto, and possession of burglary tools.

According to a press release by FHP, Florida State Troopers received a BOLO (Be On The Look Out) from the Collier Sheriff’s Office on Saturday, in reference to a stolen Range Rover, traveling east on Alligator Alley.

The stolen Range Rover was later abandoned on I-75, near mile marker 30, in Broward County and the trio entered a black Mercedes sedan and fled east on I-75.

A short time later, Florida State Troopers observed the Mercedes traveling reckless, at a high rate of speed (140 mph+) and a pursuit started.

The pursuit came to an end on I-75 near Flamingo Road on the Davie County side after State Troopers did a PIT maneuver (Precision Immobilization Technique) to stop the car.

FHP also said the trio is suspected to have been involved in a string of robberies and vehicle thefts throughout Southwest and Southeast Florida and are potentially wanted by multiple agencies.
