MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — A 25-year-old man was arrested Friday by Miami Gardens police after he fled from officers while driving an orange Lamborghini SUV, authorities said.
According to an arrest report, Kimani Kirk Simons, of Miramar, was arrested Friday afternoon after the Miami Gardens Police Department’s Stolen Vehicle Unit was notified that a vehicle fled from Miramar police.
The arrest report, however, does not state whether the Lamborghini was stolen nor does it state why police were initially trying to conduct a traffic stop.
According to the report, the SUV, which had a New Jersey tag, fled south from Palm Avenue and Miramar Parkway before making an “aggressive U-turn” from the southbound lane to continue northbound from Northwest 187th Street and 47th Avenue.
A Miami Gardens police officer then activated their vehicle’s lights and sirens, but Simons refused to stop, authorities said.
Police said Simons was traveling at a high rate of speed and ran a red light before eventually crashing into another vehicle in the area of Northwest 199th Street and 37th Avenue.
According to the report, Simons and his passenger bailed out of the SUV, but Simons was detained a short distance away.
He was arrested on charges of aggravated fleeing/eluding police, leaving the scene of a crash without serious injury, resisting an officer without violence and reckless driving causing damage to property or a person.
The Lamborghini was towed from the scene.
As of Monday morning, Simons was no longer appearing in the online jail database.
