A
Miami cop who found himself cuffed after facing a state trooper’s gun
at the end of a 120 mph chase said he was late for his second job.
Florida Highway Patrol Trooper D.J. Watts had her gun drawn when she
arrested Fausto Lopez October 11th following a 7-minute chase on the
Florida Turnpike in Broward County. The trooper said the Miami squad car
drew her attention because it was switching lanes dangerously, and the
driver failed to respond to her patrol car’s flashing lights and siren.
When Lopez finally stopped his car, Watts ordered him out of the vehicle
at gunpoint, handcuffed him and detained him. Lopez allegedly told the
trooper he was driving fast because he was late for his off-duty job.
