A high speed chase about 30-miles east of Shreveport, Louisiana ended with a high flying crash.
Webster Parrish Sheriff's deputies were pulling two men over for speeding at 78-mph. During the traffic stop the passenger jumped in the driver's seat and took off.
Police say the suspect had escaped from a work release program on February 10.
