I didn\u2019t see no video? What video?\u201d Prendergast said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">The video, captured in the early morning on Tuesday, allegedly shows Prendergast fleeing and eluding police in Miami before the stolen Ferrari crashes into a light pole along Southwest Second Avenue in Brickell.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">When asked directly whether he stole the vehicle, Prendergast denied any involvement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">\u201cWhat Ferrari? I didn\u2019t have no Ferrari. My b**ch did this to me,\u201d Prendergast said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Prendergast, who had a bandaged face, later appeared before a Miami-Dade judge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">The Bronx resident is accused of stealing a Ferrari, fleeing and eluding police, reckless driving and causing property damage. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">According to investigators, the luxury vehicle had been scheduled to be picked up by a transport company and delivered to a business but never arrived. The owners later contacted police, leading to the pursuit that ended with the crash.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Authorities also revealed that a Rolls-Royce being transported by the same company was stolen from Miami Beach.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfe0 News From Your Neighborhood<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-article-body__copyright\">Copyright 2025 by WPLG Local10.com &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" alt=\"Samiar Nefzi\" class=\"c-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/https:\/\/author-service-images-sandbox-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub\/wplginc\/9dfe9245-12b2-40be-bc.jpeg\"  width=\"100\" height=\"100\"\/>Samiar Nefzi <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-author-bio__author-description\">Samiar Nefzi joined the Local 10 News team in August of 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Published:\u00a0December 17, 2025 at 10:25 PM Man accused of stealing Ferrari speaks after bonding out of jail MIAMI-DADE&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":87699,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[225,227,226],"class_list":{"0":"post-87698","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-hialeah","8":"tag-hialeah","9":"tag-hialeah-headlines","10":"tag-hialeah-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/87698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=87698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/87698\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/87699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=87698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=87698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=87698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
