On October 5th, 2025, watch what happens when a routine traffic stop quickly escalates after a driver believes he can outsmart law enforcement. >> Turn your siren on. Turn your siren on. >> Yeah, keep your siren on. All right, turn it to the south. >> On foot, on foot, on foot, on foot, on foot. >> 10-4, I'm on foot. Okay, 10-4, I'm on foot. Back towards the camper. Stay right there. All right, Tater, I got the front. >> Where'd he go? Where'd he go? >> 10-10, I don't know. >> Okay, go back there. Keep perimeter back there. >> Okay. >> Do we have a drone? >> I believe we have a drone. I'm working on calling out a canine. >> All right, perimeter points, we need uh Diane covered because he was last seen running east from the back of this property. So, we need at least Diane covered and uh Catherine and 80. >> 10-4, your perimeter points are Diane Street and Catherine Street. >> Correction, I think I said he ran east. He ran south from the backside of his residence, south. >> I saw him last seen running south back of his his residence. >> He didn't come this way. I haven't seen him. >> You haven't seen him? >> No, ma'am. >> Okay, keep your eyes out. >> Hey Alpha 111, 53. >> 24 to 311, what is he wearing? >> It was dark colored clothing when he bailed out, that's all I could tell. >> I'm going to work my way to Catherine. >> If he didn't run into the camper, we're going to I think have him pinned down in these woods, but I don't know if he got into the camper. And just for all the units on scene or that are going to respond, he's got tons of cameras on this property and he can remotely watch them through his phone. 314, just 314, when I was running around to the front, there was a female that was outside. I don't know if you even encountered her or not. It's just so you know. I don't know where she went off to. >> 14 still in the backyard. Right at the corner of the backyard and he took off in this direction. >> Copy. Did you actually see him go in the woodline? I couldn't I couldn't tell if he circled into the I think there should be a camper back there or actually went in the woodline. 311 to 110, K9 should be able to have a good track. We didn't disturb it, so hopefully that'll let us know if he went in the woods. >> 14. >> Thanks. >> 24 to 23, You to swap spots with me and I can be up front. >> I'll put one here, down. >> Throw your floodlights on? >> Yeah, I got them. >> So, last that he pulled in behind there, bailed out this way. There is a camper behind us, so we don't know. This neighbor said he hasn't heard anything. Nobody cuz he heard us or whatever, so no one's gone south. >> Okay. >> So, um there's a female on the property. His mom is elderly that lives in that camper. >> this one had a >> Not the truck. There's a It was in the camper behind it. Yeah, she stays in that. >> If it's Wayne Dameron who we're looking for then >> Yeah, correct. Yeah, so he's got a lengthy history. >> know. I arrested him, so I know. >> So, um >> All right. He He likes to He likes to >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, we don't know what's in the truck or anything like that. That's why Tater's staying with that. I know he um confident, you know, unless he snuck back around that way, he hasn't gone that way. So, we got two options with the canine. We can either A, start giving announcements right now. I mean, canine's going to give them whenever they get here or um I almost I mean, I almost think not because if he thinks canine's coming, he might try to bolt and run. If we have him locked down then, you know, what if he just just wait until the canine starts giving announcements cuz I don't want him to bolt and break our perimeter. >> Oh, yeah. >> So, I'm thinking maybe that's the best option. I mean, tell me if you feel any different. >> I feel I feel the same way. He knows this area very well. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's got cameras. There's a camera up in that one uh right to the right in that cedar tree just inside the fence line. >> Okay. >> So, >> He's got a one of those outdoor cameras with the >> Yeah, he can remotely move them, too. So, >> Somebody back there? >> That's That's uh Tater. That's uh the owner. >> All right. All right. >> So, if you guys want to hang out here, I'll just push a little bit further that way. If you just keep eyes here, I'll push a little bit further this way. >> Person ran in here? >> The what? >> On the other side of the street, the person that we were looking for. >> Okay. >> Um have you seen anyone come through? >> I have not. No, I was actually laying in bed. My dogs did go start barking. I'm I'm deaf, so I can't really hear. >> Oh, I'm sorry. >> Uh, no, I could hear them barking. I was like, my dogs. I can hear the vibration of them barking. So, I had to find my hearing aids. So, I'm sorry that took a minute. But, um, no, I haven't seen anybody. No. >> Okay. >> am aware of what it looks like in back there. No. >> Okay. So, if anything's if uh anything if anyone stands out, we're just looking for an older white man. So, I'm sorry if I'm flashing my >> Okay, now you're going to I'm like, what's going on? Is that cop or something? I didn't know you needed me. So, >> I'm sorry. I do have a camera facing that way. I can look and see, but I haven't gotten any motion sensors >> Um, do you mind if you can pull it up? >> Yeah. I don't know if people can see in there. I'm not sure which way it's facing. >> So, you're on >> No, you're good. >> Oh, I think they got him. >> They got him? >> Yep.

He made a misdemeanor into felony, right? Driving without any lights on, running from the police. Um Then he runs, and then he bails out. Yeah, so all he has is the misdemeanor, and now he's turned it into a felony. We're probably going to be looking at seizing that vehicle, too. >> How far did he Where was he at when he got out? >> Oh, well, at old Rachel's house. >> Oh, really? >> Yeah. >> That's great. >> Shocker, right? >> Yeah. >> Having her kid act as a lookout, too, using her kid.

They made him have to take the probation. They made him take the probation. They said they're going to revoke his bond if he didn't.

And I'm like, "There was no cops and no Dwayne. I don't know what you're talking about." You know, she says that a lot. She'll wake up and say, "Who was here with the cops last night?" And I'm like, "Nobody." >> Um, is there anybody else on the property besides you, her? >> just me, her, and >> Dwayne just He don't learn, does he?

So then like then they'll get arrested for something and they take their driver's license. With their driver's license they put them on probation with no driver's license. It's like a revolving door cuz they have no How do you get to work with no You know how all these things I mean it's getting better nowadays with Uber and all these things, but before for Flagler County they don't have nothing for for transportation stuff. So if you didn't have a vehicle you're screwed. Like so taking someone's driver's license I mean that's how >> Yeah, but then when you But here's when you start committing crimes in the vehicle that's when that's when you put yourself at risk of getting your stuff taken when you start committing crimes in a vehicle felony crimes. >> Yeah. >> Yeah, and that's just a felony so >> I know everything happens so fast.

Ah, won't be the first roach-infested vehicle that we've gone through. He's No, whatever he has in his pocket is going with him to jail. If he wants to turn it over to you, then he can do that. Inmate release form to what whatever he needs to do and you can pick it up from the jail, but >> I think it's just some cash that was in his pocket. That's what I was told. >> Muting discussion. You muted. >> After officers conduct a thorough search of the vehicle and find nothing illegal, questions begin to arise about why he fled in the first place and the car is towed while Dwayne is transported to the county jail.
