Dispatch has been updated. >> Put your hands up. Put your [ __ ] hands >> At 2:23 in the morning in Bunnell, Florida, Flagler County deputies thought they were dealing with a motorcycle. What they actually encountered sounded like a weed eater with commitment issues. Meet 33-year-old Brian Swartz and his legendary escape machine, Blow By Betty. Charged with fleeing and eluding, driving without a license, and riding without a motorcycle endorsement, Brian attempted a daring getaway that would eventually reach speeds normally associated with an enthusiastic power walk of 15 mph. >> has been updated. >> Brian, Flagler County Sheriff's Office, stop. We know it's you. You're under arrest. Just give it up, man. Just stop. Don't make this any worse. >> Dispatch has been updated. >> Put your hands up. Put your [ __ ] hands up. >> HANDS UP. >> PUT YOUR HANDS UP. >> Put your hands up. >> Roll over on your stomach. >> Roll over on your stomach now. >> I can't. My foot is stuck. >> Okay. >> Exactly. Not stolen. >> All right. Fresh in Florida. >> Oh, yeah. [ __ ] >> 26 minutes and a half hour drive to wherever that park road >> I ain't going nowhere. >> He said single coming up. >> In the end, Brian Swartz's grand tour through Hidden Trails Park, Mahogany, Almond, and Cherry streets came to an unceremonious conclusion when soft sand delivered what law enforcement could not, mechanical reality. Blow by Betty was impounded where she can finally enjoy a well-earned retirement and perhaps receive the counseling she deserves after years of abuse. Swartz was transported to the Sheriff Perry Hall Inmate Detention Facility and booked on charges including fleeing and eluding with disregard for safety, operating a motorcycle without a driver's license, and riding without a motorcycle endorsement. And if this sounds familiar, that's because deputies say Brian has been arrested 16 times since 2016 on a list of charges so long it makes a CVS receipt look concise. As Sheriff Rick Staley put it, the Green Roof Inn appears to have become something of a time-share arrangement. The moral of the story? If your getaway vehicle sounds like lawn equipment and tops out at 15 mph, perhaps destiny is trying to tell you something. As always, running from law enforcement is dangerous, reckless, and almost always ends with flashing lights, handcuffs, and paperwork.
