Tampa, United States - October 19, 2025 A group of teenagers were arrested after attempting to escape law enforcement in a stolen golf cart. Hillsborough County deputies, supported by the Aviation Unit, quickly located the suspects. When the teens tried to flee on foot, officers safely took them into custody. “This is not the path we want to see our young people on,” said Sheriff Chronister. “Teenagers should be spending time in school, with their families, and building their futures, not getting into trouble at such a young age. We can only hope they take this as an opportunity to make better choices moving forward.” Officials said the coordination between deputies on the ground and the aviation team demonstrates the department’s commitment to keeping every corner of Hillsborough County safe.
