Darryl Clinton Davis Jr. died when he reportedly jumped off the Causeway Bridge into Lake Pontchartrain after being chased by police. Davis was allegedly driving a stolen pick-up truck southbound on the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway when he encountered construction crews and Causeway Police at around 10:30 p.m. Davis reportedly turned around and began driving against traffic. Police pursued Davis until he came to a stop around the 10-mile post. Davis then allegedly got out of the truck and jumped into the choppy waters of Lake Pontchartrain. Davis's body was found in the lake by the Coast Guard the morning of August 9, 2015, just a few miles south of Bayou Lacombe.
