    FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla. — Three people have been arrested on various charges after deputies responding to a shots fired call near Fort Walton Beach were led on a high-speed chase north to Crestview.

    The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office received a call of shots being actively fired involving multiple cars on Bear Road around 11:40 p.m. Tuesday night, according to a report by the OCSO.

    Deputies spotted one of the cars matching the description given fleeing the area and attempted a traffic stop on Racetrack Road. The orange Mitsubishi sped off and a 9mm handgun was tossed out the window.

    The driver reached speeds in excess of 110 miles per hour and drove into oncoming traffic as the car headed north towards Crestview. Deputies used spike strips to deflate the car’s tires and ultimately forced the car off the roadway on South Ferdon Boulevard.
