Florida Woman Just Happens To Have A Snake With Her

DATELINE - Martin County FL

Meet Dawn LaShawn Laprade. This Florida Woman took police on a wild 5-mile chase that began when she took off during a traffic stop.

Laprade crashed into two motorcycle police officers and then led police on a chase that ultimately ended when she crashed into a police car and a pickup truck with three passengers.

As the cops approached her, Laprade whipped out a snake and threw it at the officers. Ultimately it turned out to be a rubber snake but we're left with so many questions, not the lease of which is how is it that she just happened to have a rubber snake in her possession?
