This is why they should've re-built OPP in the NOE swamp... No one is escaping that...

We do this all the time.

I knew a guy, not well... That was stopped on the I-10 near Bonnabel for a DWI.. He tried to run on foot from the cops and was hit and killed on the I-10... He seemed like a smart guy but I guess I was wrong... I knew he was married but I don't know if they had kids...

Trooper Jacques LeChomp has been placed on administrative leave while internal investiGATORs review the incident. At this time, no charges against the law enforcement official are expected.

That gator did more police work in one hour than BRPD does in a month.

Damn! This guy jumped from the elevated 310 into the swamp below. That portion of roadway is pretty damn high.

We had a business associate from New Braunfels, TX that was in town (Kenner) for a sales call in the 90’s. After dinner and a couple of drinks he headed back to his hotel via I-10 west and missed his exit. It was late at night, before gps and he wasn’t from area. He somehow made it all the way through the Bonnet Carrie spillway and ended up on I-55 towards Hammond. At some point he pulled over needing to take a leak. Jumped the railing thinking he wasn’t on a raised roadway and fell into the marsh/swamp.

Was down there for an hour or so until he heard a wreck on roadway above him. A lady, also driving drunk, plowed into the back of his vehicle. Cops showed up and he started yelling for help. If that lady hadn’t had hit his car no telling when he would have been found. Hell of a story to tell the rest of your life.
