She just got back and the kid was sitting in it. So, I think they know each other. She's not That's what I think. Doesn't make any sense. She's getting frustrated when I keep asking questions. Somebody who's a victim of car jacking wouldn't be frustrated. But she's saying she wasn't pursued. She's like I just pulled him, I pulled him, I pulled him. I'm like yeah, well this stuff I'd say is but this stuff's not driving right now. Whose car is it? She doesn't know, that's the thing. >> idea. >> I don't I've never seen the car.

Okay, Smith, thank you. >> Yeah. Um so, like I said, same thing that, you know, >> My head's still spinning. >> Yeah? >> And this is all the time I see it. >> Do you guys want to let Mama talk to them and we can hang out over here? Is that okay with you? That too. I just figured there's more AC. No, that's fine. We can even go back to the regular booth that we were in. >> No way I can tell my family I love them, do I? Like phone call them? Uh you can't drive by there and I can't tell my love them. >> Where they at? >> I don't know. He said at fire rescue, uh Who's checking her out? >> That's family? >> Huh? >> That girl, she's family? >> Uh she she has my baby in her belly. >> Okay. >> I just want to tell my love them, man. You hear me? >> Well, let let me get information from them in a minute and then I'll give you confirmation for I don't want to give you false information. Regardless of what's happening, I'm going to take you guys to >> To the night blossom? >> To the Palm Coast Sheriff's Office office so that way we can get you guys in actual AC and get you a blanket. And if you need food or anything, we'll try to get you out of this uncomfy environment. >> Thanks later. I don't want to go to a foster home. >> You said you don't want to go to a Okay. I understand that. We're Let's take it step by step cuz that's not That's not where we're at right now. >> Yeah, they're going to PCJF and they're talking to them now. >> Okay. >> I'm sorry, stay calm. >> Okay, let me talk to them. >> You're good. >> Thank you. >> All right. >> So, I guess that's that's the decision they made. Um I don't know how much you know or what went on in that car. I wasn't there. I only have what your mom told me. I I don't have what she told detectives or anything like that. >> Um for a little bit. Well, I'll get you as much information as possible, okay? That's why I said I'm going to take you to this office over here. We'll get you a blanket. We'll get you some AC. Maybe you'd like to take a little nap, watch some TV until we can get in contact with some of your other family. So, from my understanding, you guys have family, so you're not going to be put in a 2000 home. Again, this isn't a permanent thing, so that that shouldn't shouldn't be the resolution. >> What's your name? >> Lee. >> Lee? >> Yes, sir. >> Danielle, the girl that was in the car with you? >> Yes, sir. >> Are those her kids? You guys have any kids in common? >> Uh no, we got one in her belly that's in common. But I've been raising those, so >> You guys have been together for a while? >> Yeah, am I going to get to tell them bye? >> I have no idea. How long were you guys down here on vacation? >> Uh it's been about about 3 weeks now, cuz we got stuck an extra week cuz the car got repoed. I was down here, so. Is this the jail we're going to? >> No, we're going to our office right here. You still got handcuffs on you? >> Yes, sir. >> You going to be >> I don't know if I'm going to >> Okay. All right. We'll get you a little bit more comfortable, so >> Yeah, we'll we'll we'll get that. Can we Can we get these handcuffs off you? >> Can you stand up? >> For uh whatever their preference is, if you preference them to stand up. All right, so from what I could tell, for the most part, just the basic gist, like you hop in the car, take off from the gas station, and then you originally pulled up to the hotel, right? >> No, I I circled back, you know what I'm saying? >> Okay, circled back around, and then and then that's when you called Danielle. >> Yeah. >> Right? And then just you just told her like, "Hey, come outside." >> I had to go, you know what I'm saying? She didn't have nothing to wash yet, no iron. >> about nothing nothing none of that [ __ ] >> Got you. Got you. Now that's when of course the guy who owned the car caught up to you guys, right? >> Yeah, and then he tried he put his hand on my pregnant lady and he tried to put his hand on my little kid. >> Is is that why you that just so I have an understanding of it, right? Is that why you pulled out the knife or is that is it because he had a knife >> I didn't threaten I didn't threaten him or anything man. I just kind of got to kind of put down the knife so I if I had to get out and do anything man I didn't want the knife on me bro. I didn't want no I didn't want no weapons involved I didn't want no one to get too seriously hurt. You know what I'm saying? I didn't I didn't I wasn't trying to threaten nobody with that knife I wasn't going to hurt nobody with that knife I just kind of took the knife out I put it off to the side so nobody could get hurt with the >> While you were sitting in the driver's seat? >> Yes sir. >> Okay. >> Yes sir. >> Okay. Cuz that that's that's that's something that comes into question, right? Like what was your intentions with the knife? >> To get it out of my pocket so if I had to get out and anything would happen that didn't happen you know what I'm saying? Nothing nobody got hurt. >> Okay. So so when the victim saw you with the knife do you think that it like and right it's hindsight 20/20. Do you think like that it may have been like a misrepresentation of you having the knife in your hand with the victim seeing you with the knife? >> threaten him with the knife or anything you know what I'm saying? I didn't threaten him or with the knife or nothing like that man I just put it on the counter man I just put it to which he had damn hands off my old lady. >> You mean like the the the center console or the >> it was she was right there yeah whatever that was right there man. I wasn't really focused on I'm just trying to get this out cuz I'm about that you know what I'm saying? Cuz he's trying to touch my 8-year-old daughter now you know what I'm saying? So I'm about to get out. >> Okay. >> So what? >> Did did you ever hop out of the car or you you didn't >> didn't hop out the car to threaten nobody I was standing I was standing in the driver's seat man I didn't get out threaten nobody I didn't get out try to make a scene. >> Yeah and and I mean like what what what it sounds like is you know obviously this dude was putting his hands, like you said, on on your woman, on your your daughter. >> and my daughter, you know what I'm saying? >> Yeah. >> I might have this car, but he still shouldn't be touching my damn kid, man. >> Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I'd be heated, too. So, I get it. >> I mean, I get his point of view, too. I was I was saying I do. Yeah. >> Did you talk to Daniella about you going to get a car prior to you leaving? Okay. All right. You just called her said, "Hey." >> Hey, hey, I got a ride, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. >> Okay. All right. So, you just said, "I got a ride." Yeah. Okay. Um and then Okay. So, when you pulled up to the hotel Zach was still trying to catch up to the car, right? >> You seen that? >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, he did like what he I think he like made contact with with Daniella first while she was coming out of the car out of the hotel room or something like that. >> I don't know. >> Okay. All right. Okay. >> know. I don't know. >> All right. Got you. And then they just you just know they were coming out and started getting in the car, right? Okay. All right.
