Or that’s how we imagine the conversation is going to go down between Antonio Montano and his son in a couple decades.

Hialeah police attempted to pull over Montano, 29, for reckless driving yesterday near Northwest 37th Avenue and 48th Street. Montana stopped the car, and as the officer approached Montano booked it out of the car and ran off.

Though, he left something behind: his nine year old son.

Police called in a helicopter to assist in the search, and had K9-units going door to door but still have not found Montano.
