How they died

Vehic/Purs

Willie L. Ross died after he crashed while fleeing from police at about 2:30 a.m. Officers were pursuing Ross' 1996 Infinity because Ross was reportedly wanted for domestic violence. Ross was traveling southbound on Louisiana 15 at a high rate of speed and he allegedly refused to stop until he lost control of the other, ran off the right side of the road, and entered a shallow ditch. The Infinity then overturned and flipped end-over-end before coming to rest. Ross was not wearing a seatbelt and was ejected from the other in the crash. He was pronounced dead by the Ouachita Parish Coroner's Office.
