Handcuffed Prisoner Taken to Hospital with Chest Pains Ditches Florida Cops in Getaway Maserati

A handcuffed prisoner was able to escape from police custody with a Maserati for a getaway car after he was initially taken to the hospital for chest pains.

Theodrick Collins, 36, was arrested Saturday after a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agent learned he had several out of state warrants. While in police custody, Collins began complaining of chest pains, so officers took him to the hospital, as reported by NBC Miami.

After Collins was evaluated and cleared, the officer began to transport him to the Miami-Dade Police Department Warrants Bureau. However, Collins managed to ditch the cop and escaped into an awaiting silver Maserati with his handcuffs still on, as reported by WPLG.

The Maserati, a rare and expensive Italian sports car, was picked up by a license plate reader two hours later in nearby Jupiter, Florida. However, police think it has since left the area, as reported by WSVN, as a manhunt continues.

Collins, from Montgomery, Alabama, was previously arrested in Mississippi on charges of felony shoplifting, reckless driving, fleeing from police and property theft, and in Alabama for leading police on a high-speed chase.
