MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — Two men were taken into custody Saturday morning after a police pursuit that began in Miami Beach and ended in a rollover crash in North Miami, authorities confirmed.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, Miami Beach police officers initially attempted to stop a blue Mercedes SUV, but the driver fled, heading west on the Dolphin Expressway around 4:30 a.m.

FHP officials said troopers later intercepted the vehicle on Interstate 95. They confirmed that the SUV exited at Northwest 119th Street, where it crashed into another vehicle but continued fleeing.

Authorities said the pursuit ended when troopers performed a PIT maneuver on Northwest Seventh Avenue near Northwest 129th Street.

Traffic cameras showed a white car flipped on its roof as first responders appeared to remove an individual from the vehicle and place them on a stretcher. The extent of his or her injuries was not immediately known.

Authorities later righted the vehicle and loaded it onto a tow truck as crews worked to clear the scene.

The crash caused significant backups in the area, though traffic was moving slowly again as of early Saturday morning. Drivers were urged to consider alternate routes, including U.S. 1 and State Road 441.

Both occupants were taken into custody without further incident, and a gun was recovered from the vehicle, according to investigators.

During the pursuit, a trooper discharged a gun toward the SUV, but no one was struck and the vehicle was not hit, according to FHP.

No other details about the suspects were immediately released.
