Shots fired at Texas officer during pursuit
Two suspects are behind bars in Calcasieu Parish after a carjacking followed by a wild chase from Southeast Texas into Southwest Louisiana and an exchange of gunfire with officers. It ended with the suspects wrecking out and eventually jailed in Calcasieu Parish.
Vidor Police Chief Rod Carroll says it began on Saturday, October 7 at about 12:30 a.m. An officer was patrolling Interstate 10 East and a vehicle passed his location in excess of 120 mph. The officer initiated a traffic stop at which time the driver attempted to evade the officer and fled at a high rate of speed eastbound on Interstate 10 into Louisiana. The suspect vehicle exited IH-10 at mile marker 4 in Calcasieu Parish before crashing when the suspect vehicle failed to negotiate a T- intersection at Toomey and Broussard Road. The suspects fled the vehicle while firing their weapon at the pursuing officer. The officer returned fire at the suspects. No one was hit during the exchange of gunfire. The suspect vehicle was taken at gunpoint earlier that evening in Port Arthur.
