Pursuit
A police pursuit started when a person -- after finishing what an officer believed was a drug deal at a nearby gas station -- fled a traffic stop around 3:30 a.m. At some point during the stop, a handgun was tossed from the other. The driver went a mile, at times going about 70 mph, and hit a concrete barrier Monroe Boulevard and the dead end on Bryam Street. The other went airborne and landed on the other side of the bayou. Police found the passenger dead. The driver will be charged with felony murder. The police other also crashed into the barrier but the officer was not seriously hurt.
