A Florida Highway Patrol trooper caught a murder suspect after recognizing a black Infinity car with a license plate connected to a nationwide be-on-the-lookout alert.
Trooper Wesley Dixon attempted to pull over the car Jan. 8 after it did not move over while another trooper was making a traffic stop along Interstate 10 in Tallahassee, Florida.
The car did not stop, leading Dixon and other troopers on a chase before a trooper used an immobilization technique to stop the vehicle.
January is Move Over Month in Florida. Last Saturday on I-10, in Tallahassee, Tpr. Dixon attempted to stop this Infinity for failure to Move Over, for the other FHP troopers. Tpr. Dixon realized the driver was wanted for a murder in Orlando, from a BOLO he received. Video pt 1. pic.twitter.com/6oIvP3M9JP

“This is a perfect example of good police work,” Cmdr. Maj. Chris Blackmon told WCTV. “A BOLO was immediately put out nationwide, and a trooper conducting traffic enforcement caught a murder suspect.”
