A man in Florida was arrested after an alleged stolen golf cart ride ended with a serious injury and a decision to leave a friend behind instead of stopping to help.

According to police reports, the incident happened in Key West and began earlier in the day when the suspect and another person allegedly took a golf cart without permission. Investigators said a master key was used, which can start multiple golf carts. After allegedly taking the cart, the suspect reportedly drove around the city for a while.

At some point, the suspect reportedly picked up a friend, who rode in the back of the golf cart. Police say the ride took a dangerous turn when the driver allegedly made a sudden and sharp U-turn. The friend was reportedly thrown from the back seat and hit the pavement. Witnesses told officers they saw the driver brake suddenly, which caused the passenger to be ejected from the cart.

A woman who was riding the Metro train on Monday was resting her foot on the edge of her seat when she was approached by a police officer. After being deemed uncooperative she was removed from the train by the officer for arrest, and she has claimed that he used an unnecessary amount of force during the process.

When North Hollywood resident Bethany Renee Nava, 18, was aboard the Metro Red Line train on January 22, she placed the heel of her shoe on the edge of her seat. “Placing feet or shoes on seats or furnishings” is a violation of the customer code of conduct, as stated by Metro, and may lead to a warning with the possibility of being ejected from the train.

Nava was seen by an LAPD officer and he approached her about her infraction. Brock Bryan, another passenger on the train, recorded the interaction between Nava and the officer with his cell phone. The footage depicted the officer grabbing the student by her arm and forcing her toward the door of the train, as she tells him to stop while attempting to collect her belongings. Nava is also heard swearing at the officer.
