Three suspects in Caddo Parish caught in separate car chases
CADDO PARISH, La. (KTAL/KMSS) — Three individuals are in custody after leading officers on two separate chases in Caddo Parish.
On Saturday, May 31, at 10:30 PM, officers attempted to stop the driver of a stolen Chrysler 300 on LA Highway 2, near Centerville Road. The driver refused to pull over, leading to a chase. The Bossier Parish Sheriff's Office and the Plain Dealing Police Department initiated the traffic stop, but once the driver reached the city limits of Vivian, Louisiana, the Vivian Police Department joined the pursuit.
Fatal accident at Highway 79 and Buncombe Road intersection
The driver, identified as a juvenile, was tased after he exited the vehicle. Upon searching him, officers discovered a handgun, ammunition, and a THC vape pen. He was charged with aggravated flight, possession of a handgun by a person under 18, and resisting an officer.
According to the press release, shortly after the initial pursuit, another chase began when an officer attempted to stop a Mercedes at the intersection of Bert Kouns and Antoine. The vehicle fled the scene but eventually crashed in the 9000 block of US Highway 80. While two passengers stayed in the vehicle, both the driver and another passenger fled on foot. However, deputies were able to apprehend both suspects, identified as 20-year-old Cozy Graham and 18-year-old Havana Madden, using a drone and a K9 unit.
Both were booked and charged with resisting an officer.
