The driver of the silver Chevy, a woman, was detained following the conclusion of the chase, Miami-Dade police officers strategically placed their cars across the northbound lanes to end the pursuit. Despite the dramatic finish, the charges she faces are yet to be clarified as the investigation is ongoing.
