During the chase the suspect’s truck struck multiple barricades. The barricades flew into the path of the police cars, striking them and causing damage.
Thirty-seven-year-old Clarence Boyd of Breaux bridge was arrested after his truck landed in a ditch.
Boyd was arrested and booked with eight different charges.
