One-Legged Driver Shakes Florida Cops
Stumble it!A driver with no arms and just one leg lost Pasco County Police in a high-speed chase - and it isn’t the first time.
Police are seeking an arrest warrant for Michael Wiley, after a police office in New Port Richey, Miami saw Wiley in a suspicious vehicle outside a convenience store. The officer attempted to investigate, and Wiley took off - leading police on an eight minute chase before losing them.
Wiley overcame three amputations and learned to drive with his stumps. Since then, Wiley has become one of the county’s worst traffic offenders. In 1998, Wiley led police on a 120mph chase along Interstate 75 - and according to court records, he’s stolen a car, kicked a state trooper and head butted his own wife.
A longtime acquaintance, Lee Michie said: “He is one of the best drivers I’ve ever seen in my life, but he is the worst person I’ve ever met.”
Wily indeed.
