Most weeks bring at least one wild story about a Floridian. This week there are three. One knife-wielding Florida man chased and threatened patrons at a Spring Hill gas station until police picked him up at 7 a.m. Saturday. Another Florida man got drunk at his home in Melbourne on Sept. 11 and decided it was the perfect day to call the police department claiming to be a professional hitman with plans to bomb the highway and take out survivors with his sniper rifle. Then on the 13th, a third Florida man tried to run down sheriff’s deputies serving a warrant. Considering his illicit cargo, it’s obvious he didn’t think through what happens when you taunt the police.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office was “conducting a warrant operation” in Dover, Florida, at 10 p.m. Saturday. Multiple deputies were standing near the roadway. Marco Reyes-Diaz happened to be driving by. For some reason, he “veered” toward the police officers in “a deliberate act” that left them scrambling out of the way. The HCSO reports, “Deputies narrowly avoided serious injury.”

Did Reyes-Diaz think this was just a hilarious prank? Was the 24-year-old trying to hurt or kill the deputies? So far, it’s unclear. What’s very clear is that the HCSO officers didn’t take too kindly to his illegal maneuver. So they hopped in their cruisers and chased after him.

The driver didn’t even make it out of Dover. The deputies caught up with Reyes-Diaz parked at a Marathon gas station on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. They arrested him without incident for his “reckless disregard for law enforcement and public safety.” Then they searched his car.

The HCSO found Reyes-Diaz had two firearms, cash, marijuana, fentanyl, and methamphetamine. Officers also found hundreds of plastic baggies, often used to package and sell drugs. Now Reyes-Diaz is locked up on multiple felony charges, including aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer with a deadly weapon, armed trafficking in fentanyl, and additional drug and weapons-related offenses.
