Drunk Driver Chases Police During Ironman

A drunk driver tore through a crowded Ironman triathlon in Jacksonville, weaving dangerously among athletes and spectators—caught on police dash cams. Officers chased him at 60 mph through neighborhoods, forcing him to stop with vehicle maneuvers. The 62-year-old, Darrell Keith Simon, reeking of alcohol and slurring his speech, faces 17 charges including his third DUI in a decade. He’s jailed on $215K bail, with court next month. A chilling reminder: impaired driving isn’t just reckless—it’s deadly, especially when crowds are watching. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
