A St. Augustine man was taken into custody following a multi-county motorcycle chase in June, the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office announced Monday.
Steven Pantojas, 42, was able to evade deputies on his motorcycle during the four-county chase, but investigators were able to track him down because of a social media post he made during the chase.
Pantojas also made a pitstop for gas in Eutis while he was being followed by a helicopter. His receipt for his fuel was also used to capture him, Volusia County Sheriff’s Office stated in a social media post.
Pantojas was charged with reckless fleeing, the social media post states.
