Cunningham, 19, was arrested for driving recklessly on St. Lucie West Boulevard after speeding and weaving out of traffic. PSLPD officers claim Cunningham was running late for his haircut appointment.
When officers performed a traffic stop, they discovered Cunningham had a suspended driver’s license and a history of several traffic citations. Police say he was arrested and taken to the St. Lucie County Jail.
Police say 26-year-old Serpas was found to be driving under the influence, fleeing and eluding, driving without a valid license, and resisting an officer without violence.
PSLPD said Serpas had a strong odor of alcohol that was emitting from him and was also taken to the St. Lucie County Jail.
His vehicle was towed, PSLPD said.
