Police Pursuit Crash Panama Florida in Panama, Florida: A 39-year-old man from Memphis, Tennessee, stole a U-Haul and a grey SUV from Panama City, Florida, then led law enforcement on a multi-agency high-speed chase through Bay, Walton, and Okaloosa counties. The driver crashed the stolen U-Haul in the parking lot of the Club Wyndham hotel on Front Beach Road in Panama City Beach, then fled in another vehicle. Deputies pursued him into Walton County, briefly called off the chase due to public safety concerns, and ultimately caught him on Highway 285 after he drove through the Mid-Bay Bridge and Niceville. The suspect was actively seizing when deputies removed him from the car, likely drug-related, and was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
