While on their way to the call Sunday, a car matching the description was seen traveling southbound on SW 62nd Avenue and then turned onto 72nd Street, an arrest report said.
When police tried to conduct a traffic stop, the driver of the Maxima sped and tried to flee. The driver also ran a red light before entering the SR-836 southbound onramp.
A police chase ensued until ultimately the car got stuck in heavy traffic near South Dixie Highway and SW 104th street and both occupants fled on foot, the report said.
Police chased the suspects on foot until they were both apprehended by officers.
Both teens were detained without further incident.
King was transported to HCA Florida Kendall Hospital by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue where he died from his injuries.
