Share this @internewscast.com

A Florida man, accused of crashing a stolen BMW at speeds exceeding 100 mph, claimed to deputies he had “teleported” into the vehicle. This peculiar assertion emerged after he was discovered bloodied and disoriented near the crash site, as revealed by bodycam footage.

In the video, 36-year-old Calvin Curtis Johnson appears bewildered as he tries to clarify how he ended up driving the stolen car.

“I don’t know how I got in the car. I teleported or something,” Johnson explained to a Volusia County sheriff’s deputy.

Pressed further on the car’s origin, he maintained his stance: “I don’t know. I teleported.”

Authorities reported that Johnson took the BMW from Bicentennial Park in Ormond Beach. The car’s owner admitted to leaving the keys in a closed cupholder while taking his dog for a walk.

A witness at the park told deputies he saw a confused-looking man get into the car.

“He kept asking for a light,” the witness said. “I thought, how does he have a BMW if he doesn’t even have a lighter for a cigarette?”

A bystander who saw the crash told deputies the BMW appeared to reach 130 mph before crashing, and that rescuers had to cut Johnson out of the wreckage.

Some onlookers shouted at Johnson before walking away.

As a deputy handcuffed him to a patrol vehicle, Johnson exclaimed, “You saved me from the aliens!”

Johnson was taken to a hospital and will be booked into the Volusia County Branch Jail on charges of grand theft of a motor vehicle and driving with a suspended license.

Deputies reminded motorists to lock their cars while enjoying parks in the area.
