Officers scare suspect ashore
KEY WEST, Fla. (AP) -- Even police chases are different in the laid-back
Keys. Officers were called to the Ocean Key House marina early Sunday
because a 55-foot cruiser was bashing into other boats. A man appeared on
the bridge of the cruiser Fireball, saw police and dove into the water.
Usually, that's when police shout ``Freeze!'' But this is Key West. They
yelled ``Sharks!'' The man swam ashore -- rapidly. Jon Davison, 34, of
Titusville, was booked on charges of grand theft and burglary, The Miami
Herald reported today.
