Florida Sheriffs On Horseback Chase A Man They Say Was A Drug Suspect (Video)

Police Officers on horseback chased a man they said was handing off drugs in Florida. The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said the mounted unit dramatically went after a drug suspect for a quarter of a mile before he eventually surrendered.

Here’s what the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office posted on its facebook page:
If you choose to run, you’ll just go to jail tired.
When 25-year-old Jordan Wilson tried to hoof it after handing off illegal drugs, he didn’t count on your #JSO Mounted Unit being hot on his tail. Police Service Horse Nash, with Officer Cassie Haire in the saddle, galloped into action, proving that criminals can run, but they can’t hide from our horsepower!
After a quarter-mile chase, Wilson decided to rein it in and surrender to Officer Zackary Maryland. While Nash is the star of the video, we want to give a big shoutout to fellow crime-fighting steeds Jaxx, Judge, and Duke, for making sure justice was the mane priority.
Our Mounted Unit doesn’t just horse around when it comes to crime!

Here’s the “chase” video:
