A 26-year-old Fayetteville man got nabbed late Monday in Hope Mills, North Carolina after a wild high-speed chase in a stolen car where he fired shots at pursuing officers. Officers Tony Tindall, Thompson and Williams stayed on his tail as he sped away, but he ditched the gun out the window right before slamming into an embankment and surrendering. With help from K9 Zander and the special operations team, cops recovered that weapon which had an illegal switch turning it into a full auto. Machine Turns out, Juan Fitzgerald was already on Fayetteville PD's most wanted list for two robberies, two second-degree kidnappings, and conspiracy charges, making this chase even hotter. He's now facing a stack of felonies here too, like assaulting officers with a deadly weapon, possessing a stolen ride, and holding a weapon of mass.
