Teenager's McDonald's Run Turns Into High-Speed Chase

In the sweltering heat of a Florida afternoon, a young driver's haste to satisfy his cravings would ultimately lead him down a perilous path. Christopher Garcia-Caminos, a 19-year-old from Clearwater, found himself in a desperate bid to return from a McDonald's run on time, pushing the pedal to the metal as he sped down U. S. Highway 19.
