On Friday, August 6, 2021, the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office (FCSO) responded to a call about a carjacking at RaceTrac, located at 6100 State Road 100 East in Palm Coast. The victim stated he left St. Augustine in the vehicle with a friend, identified as Stephen Morel (DOB: 7/12/1985).

The victim and Morel traveled to an unknown location in Volusia County to pick up a vehicle tag. Upon retrieving the tag, the victim and Morel began traveling back to St. Augustine and while driving north on I-95, the victim noticed the vehicle’s coolant temperature steadily increasing. As the victim was pulling off of the highway Morel became agitated about having to stop. The victim pulled into the RaceTrac parking lot and Morel demanded he get back on the interstate. Morel started to shout at the victim to “get out” and “give up the car” when the altercation became physical and Morel began to shove the victim from the passenger seat when he refused to continue driving. Morel then exited the passenger side of the vehicle and forcefully removed the victim from the driver’s seat. Morel then stole the car and drove toward I-95.

The victim called the Sheriff’s 9-1-1 Center to report his car had been stolen and the vehicle was most likely heading northbound on I-95 toward St. Augustine. Responding deputies located the vehicle traveling northbound on I-95. A high-risk traffic stop was conducted at mile marker 304 on I-95 just inside St. Johns County and the driver, Stephen Morel, was taken into custody.

“This guy thinks he can assault his ‘friend’ and steal his car and flee,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “I want to thank SJSO for their assistance in safely apprehending this suspect. Let this be a lesson to anyone who thinks they can commit crimes in Flagler County and run from law enforcement that you can run but you can’t hide. Neighboring agencies will work together, you will be caught, and you will go to jail.”

Stephen Morel was arrested and taken to the St. John’s County Jail. He was arrested for Robbery-Carjacking Without a Firearm. He’s being held on a $15,000 bond.
