Suspect Crashes into Alabama State Trooper Vehicle after Fleeing Carjacking in Slidell, Louisiana

A man fleeing from a carjacking at an Outback Steakhouse in Slidell, Louisiana crashed into a, Alabama state trooper’s vehicle hours later, according to police.

The suspect, Tyrone Pryor, barged into the restaurant’s kitchen in Slidell, snatched a knife, and threatened employees and customers before fleeing in a stolen red Honda Accord.

Law enforcement in Alabama later notified Slidell police that Pryor had crossed state lines and intentionally crashed into an Alabama state trooper. Pryor, who has no known ties to Slidell, is currently being held in the Tuscaloosa County Jail and will eventually be extradited to Louisiana to face carjacking charges.
