Driver eludes Manatee deputies

MANATEE — Deputies followed a white Chevy Caprice after it came back with a stolen tag Thursday night on 24th Street West, according to authorities.

The vehicle did not crash and no one was injured after it was stopped inside Parkway Villas on Coral Way. The driver, and possibly another person, fled from the car.

Deputies searched the area and could not locate the driver at about 9 p.m. Thursday. Deputies observed the same vehicle with a different stolen tag the night before with as many as four occupants, according to authorities.

Anyone with any information can contact the sheriff’s office at 747-3011 or remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at (866) 634-TIPS (8477).
