This is an (almost) full excerpt from the original article. A Louisiana mother of three was honored Tuesday for lending police a hand – or in this case, her car – to help an officer chase down a suspected shoplifter over the weekend. The pursuit began Saturday at a Dillards store in Slidell when Sgt. Jeff Kahrs was alerted to a shoplifting in progress.
The suspect, later identified as 34-year-old Kelsey Baird, of Navarre, Florida, spotted Kahrs entering the store and discarded the items she was allegedly trying to steal. When Kahrs tried to stop Baird from leaving the store, she ran through the parking lot and jumped into a car that was waiting outside, police said, adding that the vehicle was driven by Baird’s boyfriend, 43-year-old Eric Boudreaux, of Biloxi, Mississippi.
Police bodycam video shows Kahrs chasing Baird until she hops into the waiting car and speeds off through the parking lot. That’s when a kindly stranger stops and asks Kahrs if he needs a ride. “Want to hop in?” the good Samaritan says.
Kahrs accepted the assist and got in the car, helping the woman navigate to chase down the suspects. The citizen-officer duo safely followed the suspects, while Sgt. Kahrs gave a play by play to responding officers via his police radio. Moments later, backup arrived to help take the suspects into custody.
