Caught on Camera: Florida man says he was speeding home for news about Putin

FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. ā€“ A Florida man, who was pulled over for speeding, told the deputy he had to get home to find out more about what Russian President Vladimir Putin was planning.

A Flagler County deputy said he pulled the driver over in Palm Coast last Thursday for running a stop sign and going 50 mph in a 30 mph zone.

The deputyā€™s body cam captured the moments when that driver gave his excuses.

ā€œI just found out that Putin just said heā€™s gonna launch nuclear thermal war against the world and I was trying to get back to my house to find out whatā€™s going on,ā€ the man said.

The driver got a speeding ticket and another one for running a stop sign.
