A 25-year-old driving on a worn tire was arrested after flipping Florida deputies off when they pulled him over

BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. - A Florida man who was apparently unhappy about being pulled over while riding on one of the rims of his car was arrested after flipping off deputies several times, body cam video shows. 

Brevard County deputies said 25-year-old Nicholas Kaseta was driving recklessly at excessive speeds on SR 528 East when they attempted to pull him over.

Deputies said when Kaseta spoke, the odor of an unknown alcoholic beverage "emanated" from his breath. 

He also didn't complete the field sobriety exercises properly, deputies said. 

Kaseta was ultimately placed under arrest for reckless driving and resisting arrest.
