The Osceola County Sheriff’s Office said their helicopter followed the suspects to Winter Garden after a deputy tried to pull them over.
The car was suspected in connection with a call of shots fired on Desoto Drive in Kissimmee. The chopper followed it as investigators say the suspects threw the gun out of the car while driving 30 miles away before bailing out of it. At least two people were seen in handcuffs.
Skywitness 9 from our sister station WFTV Channe 9 Eyewitness News, caught deputies searching townhomes near from the RV dealership for the men.
It was not intermediately known how many of the six suspects have been formally arrested and what charges they face.
