DELTONA, Fla. (WFLA) — A Volusia County Sheriff’s deputy has resigned in lieu of termination after she was caught riding a motorcycle with a fake tag that read, “CHASEM3.”

Former Deputy Erica Muzzy was involved in a series of incidents Saturday night in Deltona and is also being investigated for an apparent social media account where she showed herself doing “reckless stunt riding on public roads,” the sheriff’s office said.

Deputies first encountered Muzzy around 8:51 p.m. Saturday night as she was with a group of other motorcyclists at a Wawa on Howland Boulevard. Officials said they recognized one of those riders as a motorcyclist who had fled from a traffic stop earlier that evening.

The suspect called out to Muzzy as he was being detained, and according to authorities, she became “argumentative” with the deputy conducting the investigation.

The fleeing motorcyclist was ultimately arrested and taken to jail, deputies said. Muzzy then left the area on her motorcycle.

Only about two hours later, a deputy pulled over a motorcycle on I-4 near for having a tag that was flipped up and not visible. Authorities said the rider was Muzzy.

When flipped down, the tag read, “CHASEM3.”

Muzzy was charged with possession of a counterfeit license plate and taken to the Branch Jail with a $2,500 bond.

She had been a deputy with the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office since 2021. The sheriff’s office said its internal investigation into her conduct online is ongoing.
