Orlando Drug Dealer Arrested after Crashing Vehicle, Running from Police

The Orlando Police Department’s TAC Unit has removed another suspected drug dealer and convicted felon off the streets after a traffic stop turned into a chase. Police recovered a gun and various drugs.




According to local police, the suspect, Oseii Mack, took off from an attempted traffic stop before eventually crashing his vehicle into a police car and then making a run for it.

OPD said officers observed several suspected narcotics transactions before the suspect entered a red Kia and took off. That’s when a traffic stop was attempted, but the suspect drove through an apartment complex before crashing head-on into a stopped patrol vehicle, according to police. The suspect took off running as OPD officers followed and eventually arrested him.

He’s now facing charges of Aggravated Fleeing with Property Damage, Leaving the Scene of an Accident with Property Damage, Driving While License Suspended, Carrying a Concealed Firearm by a Convicted Felon, Trafficking in MDMA with a Firearm, Possession of Cannabis with Intent to Sell and Resisting an Officer Without Violence.
