A multi-agency pursuit has led to the arrest of a Texas woman on several charges, resulting in the seizure of weapons and a small amount of suspected marijuana. It all began, on Monday morning, Dec. 16 at approximately 2:53 am, when the Sabine Parish Sheriff’s Office contacted the Natchitoches Parish Sheriff’s Office requesting assistance with a pursuit on Hwy. 6 in Sabine Parish.
Sabine Parish dispatchers reported that Sabine Parish law enforcement were in pursuit of a black 2017 Hyundai passenger car, driven by Anyia Davis, traveling at a high rate of speed, eastbound on La. Hwy 6 nearing the Natchitoches Parish line. Davis, was reportedly armed. Natchitoches Parish Sheriff’s Deputies and Louisiana State Police responded to the Robeline area in an effort to intercept the vehicle.
According to reports, Louisiana State Police were able to stop the vehicle near Robeline. When they attempted to make contact with the violator, she drove off. The vehicle continued traveling eastbound on Hwy. 6 towards Natchitoches. Deputies along the route attempted to deploy tire deflating devices but were unsuccessful.
As the vehicle entered Natchitoches City Limits near I-49, Natchitoches Police joined in to assist in the pursuit. The vehicle then quickly turned left traveling northbound on I-49. The pursuit continued until the vehicle exited at the Posey Road exit, then quickly turned right onto the Paul Jordan Road north of Natchitoches at a high rate of speed finally coming to a stop near a dead end.
Residents in the area reportedly were awakened by the pursuit and police activity.
Deputies say upon coming in contact and taking the violator identified as 19-year-old Anyia R. Davis of Spring, Texas into custody, multiple agencies consisting of LSP, NPSO, Sabine Parish SO, Many Police and Natchitoches Police could all smell marijuana.
