POMPANO BEACH, Fla. — Three men were taken into custody after a police chase that ended in Pompano Beach on Thursday, authorities confirmed on Friday. And they now say it all started with a kidnapping at a McDonald’s.
Authorities arrested Tracey Ross, 30, along with Lamar Perry and Timothy Brown, both 18, after the chase ended with one of the suspects slamming an SUV into a traffic light pole on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
Investigators said Ross took a man’s phone off a table at the McDonald’s at 11200 State Road 84 in Davie and demanded that the victim “get into their vehicle in order to get his phone back.”
Davie police said after the men drove the victim to the 700 block of Northwest Ninth Avenue in Fort Lauderdale, the victim was “was forced out of the vehicle and was physically struck.”
“He fled, stopped a person in the area and called 911 to report that he was kidnapped from Davie,” a Davie Police Department spokesperson said.
The men then fled to Pompano Beach after Fort Lauderdale police found the vehicle, authorities said.
All three were facing kidnapping charges as of Friday.
