On the evening of June 11, 2022, Plaquemines Parish Sheriff's Office (PPSO) District 3 Patrol Deputies intercepted a stolen vehicle at the intersection of Highway 39 and Highway 3137 on the eastbank of Plaquemines Parish. As the responding deputies were conducting a stop of the stolen vehicle on Highway 3137, the vehicle was involved in a single-car crash causing the four occupants to flee the scene on foot.
