Traffic Stop Leads to Pursuit and Arrest of Two Suspects with Illegal Firearms
SHREVEPORT, LA
On November 17, 2024, at approximately 12:02 a.m., Shreveport Police Department officers initiated a traffic stop on a tan 2002 Chevy Trailblazer (license plate 306HIE) near the intersection of Oak Park Drive and Jefferson Paige Road. The vehicle was observed running a stop sign in an area where officers had just heard multiple gunshots.
As officers approached the intersection, they observed the SUV rapidly approaching and abruptly braking upon seeing the patrol vehicle. Using high beams to better identify the driver, officers noted the individual was wearing a black ski mask. The vehicle then fled westbound on Jefferson Paige, failing to comply with commands to stop.

· Traveling westbound on Jefferson Paige Road for 5.5 miles.
· Reaching speeds up to 90 mph.
· Brake-checking pursuing officers multiple times in an attempt to cause a collision.
· Entering oncoming traffic lanes on a two-lane road.
·
The pursuit concluded when the vehicle lost control on a curve and crashed into a ditch. Fortunately, no other vehicles were on the roadway during the incident.
Upon searching the vehicle, officers recovered three firearms, two of which were illegally modified to function as fully automatic weapons.
