Cantonment Woman Charged With Fleeing From Deputies
July 16, 2023
A Cantonment woman is in the Escambia County Jail without bond after allegedly fleeing from Escambia County Sheriff’s Office deputies.
Emily Dawn King, 25, was charged with felony fleeing and eluding a law enforcement officer and violation of probation.
A deputy attempted a traffic stop on a Dodge Charger in the area of Broad Street and Pensacola Boulevard for an apparent window tint violation. After the deputy activated the emergency lights his on vehicle, the Charger continue northbound at speeds reaching 60 mph, according to an arrest report. The deputy terminated and last saw the car near Nine Mile Road and Highway 29.
A short time later, another deputy observed the Dodge Charger and attempted a traffic stop near Highway 29 and West Roberts Road. The vehicle abruptly merged across the traffic lanes and ultimately turned on Pompano Road.
Deputies later located King and the vehicle on Ryales Road in Cantonment.
King told deputies that she was the passenger in the car, and her ex-boyfriend was the driver, the report states. She then made additional statements to law enforcement that were redacted from the arrest report.
Four people at the Ryales Road residence told deputies that they did not know why King was there, and she had arrived alone just before law enforcement, according to the ECSO.
Records indicated that King was on probation in a 2017 narcotics case.
The Dodge Charger was seized.

Shelbs I like your attitude about her, no judgment. If this was your child, would you have the same words to say on here or rewording how you’re stating your opinion? While I know there are consequences for her actions we should also think of the family when we’re voicing our opinion of her.
Such a sad story. Seems this young lady has already started going down the wrong path regarding the Laws and her inability to live properly. Being a good person with a kind soul does not excuse the fact that she has already run afoul of the Police with her history. It’s sad seeing such young people already behind the 8 ball. I do pray that she will see the errors of her ways and straighten up. Hope she does before she winds up down the road with a number across her chest.
She’s a goood girl and such a beautiful kind spirit. I pray it gets better for her and she gets the help she needs. Don’t judge you don’t know all the circumstances! Pray for her . Not judge .
@Susie
Well, she was arrested for parole violation for an arrest back in 2017, so it’s not “just one mistake”.
But I agree. Our legal system should be rehabilitating people who break the law and reintegrating them into society.
If you look back in time and remember what happens when law enforcement knows more than your lies can cover it changes everything and the truth slowly creeps out and then you go to jail !!! Definitely something to remember stop lying own up to your stupid mistakes and make it right !!! Then when you are pulled over you can say with a clear conscience why did you pull me over officer !!!!!
It’s such a shame a beautiful girl can ruin her life and reputation in one stupid incident. Girl, you better wake up now!!
I remember my days of youth. When you start computing the performance values of your vehicle, vs that of your opposition.
1981, I remember lunch hour, 100mph runs between redlights on the Biloxi strip, seeing those blue lights activating in my rear view mirror, MHWP looking for a median to head west, me ducking into a retirement home and watching him safely fly by.
DO NOT ENGAUGE IN SUCH ACTIVITY.
The Princess needs about five years in prison.
When will criminals learn, to drive a legal car! No illegal tint, no expired tag, no loud exhaust, no booming music, do the speed limit, etc Low profile man! A Dodge Charger with illegal tint, you’re just begging for the law’s attention. You got it. wee woo, wee woo. Listen, if you’re going to be a criminal, you need to get up every day, run a mile, lift a little weight, high protein, high fiber, a little yoga wouldn’t hurt, maybe slack off the drugs a bit, plan better and prepare. Think Ocean Eleven, Ocean Eleven. hahaha
