Dash footage shows the moment an undercover cop gets carjacked while trying to buy drugs in a sting operation.
On July 18th, 2025, a Hillsborough County Detective in the Special Investigations Division Gang Unit organized an undercover meet-up via social media with two individuals, Daryl Cole, 17, and Christopher Samuels, 18, in Riverside, Florida.
The meet-up began as a drug deal, but later escalated into the two suspects attempting an armed robbery of the detectives' money and vehicle.
However, in a failed attempt to get away in the detective's car, both suspects fled the scene on foot and were later identified and arrested.
