Troopers said the 16-year-old from Wesley Chapel “found out the hard way” that street racing is illegal in Florida. However, as of Sunday, they were still looking for his alleged accomplice.
The 17-year-old was reportedly driving a silver Corvette with a Vermont tag.
Anyone who has any information is asked to report it to authorities by dialing *FHP.
