WHITNEY POINT – While three Florida men have been charged with numerous felonies following a lengthy motor vehicle pursuit through several towns and two counties, New York State Police are still on the lookout for two other men they sad fled on foot on Friday in Whitney Point.

The incident began Friday night when State Troopers from Homer on patrol in Cortland County spotted a vehicle that had been “flagged” with an "attempt to locate" notice out of Oneida County for questioning in a suspected bank fraud.

Troopers proceeded to follow the 2015 Kia Sorrento and its five passengers, and the pursuit of the vehicle ended on the northbound ramp of Interstate 81 – the opposite direction of travel– in Whitney Point. Authorities say that this is when the five occupants abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot into a densely wooded area near the Dorchester Park area.
