Police in Florida stopped a woman who was allegedly about to drive her car through the route of a 5K run on Thanksgiving morning.

The St. Petersburg Police Department said 38-year-old Ashlee Lauren Morgan was driving her 2019 Range Rover Velar, while going 60 miles per hour on Thursday as she was approaching 21st Avenue NE, near the route for the Coffee Pot Turkey Trot, according to FOX 13.

Police say the woman was stopped before driving her vehicle through the route of the 5K, which was closed to traffic.

Police said in the court document that Morgan "Refused, ignored commands of "Stop!" and fled the scene of the stop at an extremely high rate of speed, onto the actual racecourse, further putting the lives of runners/race participants at risk."

After attempting to flee police officers, the woman was eventually "forced" to stop at an intersection.

I can’t help but wonder if she knew someone running in the race…

Good work LE!

OR followed the DarrELL Brooks circus (jmho) in Wisconsin?

(Somewhat OT -- I have owned & lived in quite comfortable homes that cost less than a 2019 Range Rover Velar according to Google.)
