MIAMIE GARDENS, FL – An alert off-duty Broward Sheriff’s Office deputy trusted his instincts and investigated a suspicious car parked in a Weston neighborhood last week. That sixth sense resulted in BSO’s Burglary Apprehension Team (B.A.T.) arresting a pair of car thieves and recovering an expensive vehicle with a unique, high-powered Hellcat engine. 

Following the tip from the off-duty deputy, B.A.T. detectives determined that the 2018 Dodge Charger Hellcat was reported stolen out of Davie. On Friday, using investigative methods, B.A.T. detectives surveilled the car into Miami-Dade County. When the driver of the vehicle arrived at a home in Miami Gardens, detectives arrested Victor Caceres and Sire Reffner. Caceres was taken into custody without incident and was found to be in possession of a Glock 9mm. Reffner fled on foot and was taken into custody a short distance away. 

Caceres and Reffner both face multiple charges including grand theft of a motor vehicle and dealing in stolen property.
