MIDDLEBURG – A 20-year-old man from Jacksonville was tackled in a backyard along Doctors Lake following a chase that started on State Road 21, turned onto County Road 218, down Henley Road to County Road 220 and ended at Swimming Pen Drive when the driver and passenger attempted to run from the scene.

Clay County Sheriff’s Office deputies and a patrolman from the Florida Highway Patrol chased the driver, Andre Christopher Munoz, of Jacksonville, until he was tackled on a dock by FHP. The entire incident was recorded by a customer across the creek at Whitey’s Fish Camp. The video was then posted on the sheriff’s office’s social media pages.

The passenger was caught after he jumped from the car.

Munoz was charged with stealing the car in Jacksonville, aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, attempting to flee and elude law enforcement with emergency lights and sirens active, reckless driving, driving without a valid license, resisting arrest and trespassing.

Munoz’s bond was set at $121,017.

The passenger, Michael Collin White, 18, of Jacksonville, was charged with grand theft auto, trespassing and resisting arrest. His bond was set at $35,007.
