A high speed chase through the streets of Pensacola this morning. Escambia County Deputy Jason Barnes was on patrol when he spotted an armed robbery suspect. Just minutes before, a man robbed the Shell Station at 9th Avenue and Underwood Drive. Deputy Barnes tried to pull the suspect's vehicle over, but the man started to go faster. The sheriff's office helicopter was in the air and started following the chase from above. The robbery suspect couldn't make a curve in the Brownsville area. He crashed into a parked car and then into a yard near Z Street. The driver jumped out and started running. The helicopter followed him and guided deputies and police officers to his hiding place behind a building.The Escambia County Sheriff's Office says Willis Ray Johnson of Pensacola faces several criminal charges.
