UPDATE: A Lyft driver with Philadelphia ties who went missing while living in Florida has died, according to his daughter.
Ellenburg said North Carolina state troopers used stop sticks to halt the vehicle in Ellenboro. The sheriff said Flores fled briefly on foot before he was apprehended and taken to a hospital for an evaluation. He was later booked into the county jail, and the vehicle was taken to a secure location, the sheriff said.
Authorities are investigating how Flores obtained Levin's car. Levin’s family said they do not know whether Flores was the passenger Levin picked up in Delray Beach on Jan. 30. John Eason, the police chief in Wauchula, Florida, told The AP in a phone interview that officers are heading to North Carolina in hopes of interviewing Flores about the Jan. 24 killing and Levin's disappearance.
DiBetta previously told the AP the family has learned that Levin took an unknown customer to Okeechobee, a small city on the edge of Lake Okeechobee, and completed the ride sometime after 4 p.m. on Jan. 30. A spokesperson for the Okeechobee County Sheriff's Office told the station that the body was found early Saturday off Northeast 40th Terrace and State Road 70 in a wooded area near the Okeechobee County Agri-Civic Center in the northeast section of the city.
Levin's son, John, told NBC10 their family tradition was following the Eagles. He said he talked to his father just last weekend about how much they were looking forward to watching the Super Bowl.
