HARRISON COUNTY, TEXAS - Suspects in a fatal shooting at a convenience store in Louisiana were arrested in Harrison County after a multi-state pursuit and crash, the Ruston, Louisiana Police Department said.

Officers found Ontario Spivey, 35, of Ruston dead at the scene.
Ruston police said investigators were able to identify both the suspect and suspect’s vehicle through video surveillance, and a Grambling city police officer was also able to identify the suspect as Virgil Mack.
Police issued a BOLO alert, and then used license plate reader technology to determine Virgil Mack’s escape route, Ruston police said. The car was found traveling west on Interstate 20.
Ruston police notified Louisiana State Police, and a state trooper with Troop G attempted a traffic stop — but Virgil Mack fled and initiated a pursuit.
Ruston police said the chase continued into Texas, where the suspect vehicle crashed in Marshall.
