Florida Man Abandons Child During High-Speed Chase, Arrested

A Florida man was arrested after abandoning a child during a high-speed chase from law enforcement. Jason Kenon, 24, fled from deputies in Orlando on Tuesday after a traffic stop, leading to a pursuit that ended with him leaving a 4-year-old child alone in a wooded area. Kenon, who had multiple active warrants, was driving with an adult passenger and two children, ages 1 and 4, when he sped away from police. Helicopter footage from the Orange County Sheriff's Office showed Kenon crashing into another vehicle, zigzagging through traffic, and eventually stopping in a residential neighborhood. He let the adult passenger and the 1-year-old out of the car before driving off again, leaving the 4-year-old behind. The child attempted to exit the vehicle but was unable to before Kenon drove away. Later, Kenon stopped near a building, removed the 4-year-old from the backseat, and ran from police. He was seen jogging through an alley, kicking off his shoes, and running barefoot in the opposite direction from the child, leaving the child alone. Deputies recovered the child, who was crying and holding Kenon's shoes. Neither child was injured. Kenon was arrested and faces charges related to the incident.
