Florida Man Cartwheels From Cops
A Florida man thought he could evade being arrested by out cartwheeling the police. He was wrong.
A witness was able to catch Gianfranco Fernandez trying to evade police by doing cartwheels as he ran away. The viral video footage shows the gymnastics enthusiast blocking the path of a truck at a Wawa in Orlando, by doing a flip in the middle of the roadway. Officers took him down for apparently blocking traffic, but the man was able to wiggle out of their grasp.
He then launched into a cartwheel but didn’t get very far. He was charged with battery on a law enforcement officer and resisting arrest.
