What BBN said about it

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorChuck Kennon, the top recruit in Florida State's twenty twenty-six class, has now been dismissed from the program, and Breitbart reports the felony arrest followed a high speed chase with police.
Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterThe number everyone keeps repeating is one hundred fifty miles per hour, and I have been staring at it since the program dismissed him!
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorAllegedly. Nobody has been convicted of anything, Rosa, and the story as reported is that he was dismissed after an arrest.
Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterAllegedly one hundred fifty. That is a scouting report with a siren attached.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorIt is a charge sheet.
Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterAnd the road was the combine, which means the police were timing him the whole way.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe report does not say what happens in court, only that the team has moved on, and I have seen programs move faster than that.
Rosa Ticks · Live ReporterComing up next, we'll tell you which city's sanitation department just earned official cultural status.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorTonight the only record he set is the one the police clocked, and it was not an audition.
