Two men, one from Jeanerette, and a second from New Iberia were arrested after leading Louisiana State Police (LSP) Troop D and multiple law enforcement agencies on a pursuit down Interstate-10 from Lake Charles, through several parishes, and ending in Lafayette.

According to a media release, "a LSP Trooper attempted to stop a 2013 Chevrolet Sonic on March 20, after 8 am, for a traffic violation on Interstate-10, 6 miles west of Iowa, LA. The driver, identified as Keith Anderson Harris, 35, of Jeanerette, failed to stop, leading troopers through eastern Calcasieu Parish, Jefferson Davis Parish, Acadia Parish, and into Lafayette.
