Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey issued the following statement.
On Monday morning May 23, 2022 a deputy with the Rankin County Sheriff’s Interstate Interdiction Unit attempted to made a traffic stop on a blue Nissan passenger car with a Florida tag for a traffic violation on U.S. Highway 49 south of Star.
When the deputy activated his emergency lights, the driver of the Nissan immediately accelerated and attempted to elude the deputy. The deputy radioed for assistance and several Rankin County Law Enforcement Officers began responding to assist.
When deputies approached the City of Florence, officers from the Florence Police Department successfully deployed “stop sticks” deflating the tires of the suspect vehicle. The suspect immediately began to slow down and eventually lost control of the vehicle and drove into a construction area where the vehicle stopped near the intersection of U.S. 49 and Hwy. 469.
During a search of the vehicle and area by the vehicle, deputies located a 9mm pistol which appears to have been illegally converted to fully automatic. Deputies also located several high capacity magazines for the weapon along with two “ski masks”.
The driver of the vehicle, Christian J. APONTE, was transported to the Rankin County Adult Detention Center and booked on the charges of “Felony Fleeing” and “Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon”.
District Attorney Bubba Bramlett will bring Christian J. APONTE before Rankin County Court Judge David Morrow for an initial appearance.

I second moron.
Funny way of saying he 3D printed a “giggle switch”
THIS JUNKIE troublemaker is probably from rankin county.
im aware of no less than 50 people who liive in mississippi and have florida tags on their vehicles.
you see, in florida a tag cost 25$ no matter whether its for a mercedes benz or a hoopdee.
law enforcement does nothing about that problem.
Notice how dark the tint is on the vehicle.
If they're smart, Rankin will allow this to be converted (primary) to a federal charge by ATF.

I also concur with Moron.......
Baby driver here didnt make the cut
He looks like a roadie for a white rapper.
Mafioso wanna be or family member of the Cuban Aponte Rebellion. I'm going with Cuba for $400 Pat.
11:17. with an older nissan, he's a wanna be...
Good job officers ! Thank you for what you do. You people put your lives on the line everyday for the safety of us all and it is greatly appreciated.
The one time the construction on Hwy 49 actually was convenient.
He looks like he has had a robust career in stolen copper.
its not illegal to own "high capacity" magazines in Mississippi.
1:38
Son...the key word here is "convicted felon".
1:38 And it shouldn't be. I have hunting weapons and I have weapons to protect me from a tyrannical government.
"A little warm for ski masks, ain't it Christian?", inquired the deputy.
"its not illegal to own "high capacity" magazines in Mississippi. May 24, 2022 at 1:38 PM"
Who are you addressing? It hasn't been suggested that it is illegal; however, the gun is another matter, you might agree.
2:33 - I hope you feel safe behind your interior, residential drywall with forty high-capacity clips between your shivering knees. It'll last about eleven seconds if 'the government' decides to OFF you.
