When the officer turned his emergency lights on the sedan pulled over but the Camaro, driven by Peters, accelerated and exited U.S. 165 North. Peters's camaro reportedly exceeded speeds of 100 mph when the deputy was in pursuit. He eventually pulled over at a shopping center where the officer ordered him to exit the vehicle. Peters was then handcuffed, arrested and transported to Ouachita Correctional Center. He was booked on charges of drag racing and resisting by flight.
