00:00Stop the vehicle, bro. Let me see your hands.
00:01You gotta get in the car.
00:03Out of the car!
00:05Walk back to us.
00:05Turn around.
00:06What are you talking to me?
00:07Turn around!
00:08Things were a far cry from business as usual at the Circle K in Palm Coast, Florida, on a summer
00:14night in 2021.
00:17Customers bore witness to a frightening occurrence that began with an altercation and quickly escalated to grand theft and kidnapping
00:24charges.
00:25Given that a young child was trapped inside the vehicle that was stolen.
00:30A pair of bystanders who'd seen it all go down briefly described the encounter to law enforcement upon their arrival
00:36at the scene.
00:38It's a White Dodge Journey?
00:40Yes, sir.
00:412014 White Dodge Journey.
00:44And we're going to have borderline. I mean, it's almost kidnapping.
00:47First, he was over there.
00:48He had the driver's side back door.
00:54It's not the driver's side. The passenger on the driver's side opened when she was trying to get to the
00:59vehicle.
00:59And then he drove and then backed up.
01:02Instead of him getting out, he jumped out, faced me, and then shoved me clear back, knocked my dang glasses
01:08off.
01:08What's his name?
01:10Andrew.
01:11Alan.
01:12Andrew.
01:12Tyrone Allen.
01:13Do they get him?
01:14Okay.
01:14We're not sure yet. They're still looking for the car.
01:17The mother of the missing child is Andrew's childhood friend.
01:20I've just been throwing at it the whole time, the whole day, and I was just like, where can I
01:24drop you off?
01:25And so he told me to come here because he, like, forgot to get something out of the store.
01:31And he goes, like, he's going into the store.
01:34I get out and, like, he locks me, runs around, locks me out of the car.
01:38He's grabbing, like, all the little pocket knives that he has.
01:42Do you want to press charges for kidnapping?
01:43I do. I want to press charges for everything I can get him for.
01:46So far, we have kidnapping and battery.
01:49There's a child in the car.
01:50The situation is especially urgent considering there's a little girl in the vehicle.
01:56Hey, let me see your hands!
01:58Stop the car!
02:00Yeah, he's going.
02:03He's not stopping. He's trying to roll forward.
02:08Let me see your hands! Put your hands up!
02:12Officers have arrived at a fateful moment.
02:15The standoff could go in any direction from here.
02:18Stop the vehicle, bro. Let me see your hands.
02:20Put the vehicle in park and turn it off.
02:22I got to get in the car.
02:23I know. Get out.
02:25Get out of the car. Do it now.
02:27Get out of the car. Do it now.
02:29Andrew is surrounded.
02:31With your left hand, keep your right hand where it is.
02:33Open the door from the outside and slowly get out.
02:37With your left hand, open your door from the outside.
02:40Open the door from the outside and get out.
02:42I've told you I want you to do one thing.
02:45Unlock it and get out.
02:47All right.
02:47Do you think we're playing?
02:49Get out.
02:50Everybody's playing with you.
02:52Yo, get out of the car. Do it now.
02:55Hey!
02:56Get out of the car.
02:57Now!
02:58Don't make me tell you again.
02:59Bro, can I roll the one of that one?
03:01No! Get out! Now!
03:03I don't want to run the door for her.
03:04Get out of the car!
03:06Walk back to us.
03:07Turn around.
03:08Why are you talking to me?
03:09Turn around!
03:10I told you I don't have no gun.
03:11Turn around.
03:12I got some in my pocket.
03:14My wallet.
03:15Walk back towards me, all right?
03:16Walk back towards me.
03:17Hey!
03:18Walk back towards me.
03:19Come on.
03:19Okay!
03:20All right?
03:20Let's go.
03:22Keep walking.
03:23Keep walking, dude.
03:24Keep walking towards me.
03:25Come on.
03:25Keep walking, man.
03:27Chill out.
03:28We got you.
03:30Step back here for me.
03:31Just listen to me and you.
03:32Everything will be fine.
03:33All right.
03:34I appreciate it.
03:35I appreciate it.
03:36Put your hands behind your back.
03:37All right.
03:38Hey.
03:38Cool.
03:39Thankfully, the little girl appears to be uninjured.
03:42Hey, sweetie.
03:42You okay?
03:43You okay?
03:44You all right?
03:45What's your name?
03:46Can I get a high five?
03:47Do you want to go back to your mom?
03:48Yeah.
03:49Yeah.
03:49Okay.
03:51We're going to bring mom over here, okay?
03:53All righty.
03:53You're safe now.
03:54All right, sir.
03:55Meanwhile, other officers are handling the suspect,
03:57and he's definitely not pleased with the whole situation.
04:01You're just being detained.
04:03Can you do it the other way, please?
04:04With my hand?
04:05Yes, we will.
04:06Relax.
04:06My hand is messed up.
04:07Okay, we're going to fix her.
04:09We got to make sure she's all right.
04:11Calm down, dude.
04:13But you're not understanding that my hand is fractured.
04:15Chill out.
04:16Okay.
04:17I got goggles on.
04:18There's a reason we're out here.
04:19I got you.
04:20I hear you.
04:20We didn't just come.
04:21Officer, I hear you.
04:24I'm present.
04:25Okay.
04:25Calm down.
04:26We'll fix them in a minute, all right?
04:27I got you, but I'm telling you,
04:28you're grabbing onto my hand.
04:30It's painful for me right now.
04:31Okay.
04:32We'll fix it in a second.
04:33I promise you.
04:34I got you.
04:34No, it's too late now.
04:36The officer behind me is the one gripping my hand.
04:38Any weapons or anything on you?
04:40No, I'm trying to tell you the weapons are all in the dash or whatever.
04:42Okay.
04:43That's what I'm saying.
04:44Give me a second to talk to you.
04:45We will.
04:46Well, we got to read you some rights, all right?
04:47And then we'll get with you.
04:48I hear you.
04:48All right.
04:49I was trying to tell you.
04:50Maybe you wrote a window down at least for the little girl, dog.
04:52We got the door open.
04:53She's fine.
04:53I promise you.
04:54I got you, but she's already scared.
04:55We got, listen, we've talked to her.
04:57We're good.
04:57Mom's coming up here.
04:58We're straight.
04:58I know, but I'm saying the thing is she was scared because she's banging on the window.
05:01And literally, I asked for the keys.
05:03So that's what I'm saying.
05:04So listen, what I'm just trying to explain to you is like, we literally have, I just talked
05:08to her myself.
05:08She is totally fine.
05:09I promise you.
05:10Okay.
05:10I'm going to go ahead and do a pat down on you.
05:12Once I start my pat down, don't make you type of sudden moves.
05:14If you do, I'll take that as an act of aggression at the courtroom.
05:16Do you understand?
05:16Okay.
05:17Can I warn you about one thing?
05:18Sure.
05:19I got a skateboarding injury real close up here.
05:21So just be a little gentle.
05:22Sure.
05:22Absolutely.
05:23Is there anything on me that's going to poke me, suit me, or jab me, bud?
05:25Not that I know of.
05:26All right, man.
05:27Listen.
05:27Hey, I ain't had a girl touch me in a while.
05:29So just be careful, okay?
05:30Roger that, bro.
05:30I might enjoy it too much.
05:31I might enjoy it too much.
05:32I understand.
05:34Andrew's pat down indicates that he isn't concealing anything and he's moved to the back of a patrol unit.
05:40All right.
05:40So before I ask you any further questions, I'm just going to read you something.
05:44Just say, just help me get out of the way.
05:46Doesn't mean you're under arrest or anything right now?
05:48I'm just going to tell you, all right?
05:51Andrew acknowledged that he understood his rights, but refused to speak with law enforcement without legal representation present.
05:58Still, it seems it wasn't long before he had a change of heart.
06:02What happened to your finger?
06:03Right between your hands?
06:04I was just in the hospital two or three days ago because I was fighting her or her.
06:08She pepper sprayed me in the parking lot and left me stranded with all my stuff.
06:12Where was that at?
06:13Is that me?
06:14Foreman.
06:15Oh, okay.
06:15Yeah.
06:16I punched the wall.
06:18I really don't know what it was without me or her.
06:21We're like, I guess, bickering about.
06:24We were at Chick-fil-A.
06:25She blew up in the middle of that.
06:28I had actually been drinking.
06:29She wanted me to drive.
06:31I went to get drinks, right?
06:33I lost my glasses.
06:34My glasses got broken in the last couple of months.
06:36I just ordered some.
06:37I can't drive without my goggles.
06:40Right.
06:40So, again, I...
06:42And you were drinking too, right?
06:44Yeah.
06:45I got you.
06:45I was drinking, but I seriously, I'm not even trying to play with you.
06:50Yeah.
06:51I'm an athlete.
06:52I know how to handle my liquor.
06:53So, again, I was trying to talk to her.
06:57I was guiding her how to get to Chick-fil-A that night.
07:01Andrew has a bit of a dilemma here.
07:03After all, he hasn't even provided a reason as to what compelled him to resort to these acts.
07:09Regardless, what's done is done, and Andrew is about to head to his next destination.
07:15Step back for me.
07:21It's an extra felony, and I'm giving you a fair chance just to tell me now if you have anything
07:25else.
07:27It shoved anywhere, anywhere we didn't check, anything we didn't find.
07:30It's an extra felony?
07:31If you have something on you that we didn't find that's illegal, a contraband, anything like that?
07:34Well, I'm sorry, but what do I look like to you?
07:37I tell everybody.
07:38I'm just saying.
07:40Y'all just searched me three times at this point.
07:43I tell everybody whether it's...
07:44I got leggings on, dude.
07:45Okay.
07:46Go ahead and hop in.
07:47And with the arrest and charges of simple battery, grand theft of a motor vehicle, and kidnapping,
07:54Andrew was transported to the Flagler County Inmate facility to complete the booking process.
07:59It was determined that he would be held without bond.
