Deputies: [Florida] Man Calls 911 To Brag After Fleeing Traffic Stop

A Florida man was arrested earlier this month after allegedly calling 911 to brag about fleeing a traffic stop.

Deputies say they pulled over Nicholas Jones, 19, on May 4 for driving his white Hyundai Elantra with a broken tail light. Before the deputy could reach the driver, he pulled a U-turn and sped off.

About an hour later, 911 got a call from Jones.

Deputies caught up with Jones the following day while shopping at a Ross clothing store. They say he laughed when they told him he had ratted on himself.

“That’s funny. So I told on myself?” Jones asked, according to the arrest report. “No cop can catch me in my Hyundai Elantra, that thing is fast.”

Jones was charged with fleeing, possession of drugs and probation violation for a previous car theft.

Just read in our local, small town paper that a 29 year old was arrested for driving with a criminally suspended license. His bail was set at $100.00, and he paid with a $100 bill that turned out to be a counterfeit.

There certainly are geniuses among us.

Yep - them Elantra’s are about the fastest things on the road - no way a cop car could catch one....I think he may have partaken some of the drug stash they found when they arrested him before making the call...
