State Line Manhunt Ends With Suspects In Custody
June 28, 2017
An early Wednesday morning manhunt involving officers from two states ended with two car burglary suspects headed to jail.
The Escambia County (AL) Sheriff’s Office became involved in a vehicle chase along Highway 31 in Nokomis during the 3 o’clock hour. The suspect, identified as 19-year old Eric John Williams, ran his car into a ditch alongside Highway 31 at James Road, about a mile north of the Alabama/Florida state line. Williams ran from the scene on foot, prompting the manhunt. Another passenger in the vehicle, Bryson Williams, 18, was taken into custody.
Law enforcement officers from Alabama and Florida surrounded the area, including James Road, Deere Creek Road and Pineville Road in Alabama and Jones Road, North Pineville Road and Jakes Road in Florida.
Williams was taken into custody just after 6 a.m. Both Williams subjects were wanted in connection with car burglaries and thefts. Eric Williams is expected to face additional charges for fleeing from deputies Wednesday morning.
Further details have not yet been released.
