Like a Good Episode of Cops

City Police arrested a Lafayette man Thursday after a car chase through town. The suspect was routinely stopped for a traffic violation when police discovered he had illegal narcotics in his possession. The suspect then hopped back in his car and sped off down Moss Street. After crashing into a police car, he took off on foot, but was captured a short distance away. The suspect is charged with a whole host of offenses, including hit and run and OWI. The Advocate has all the details here.
