Two men arrested for multiple outstanding warrants —
Two men driving Sunday on Nicholson Drive had multiple outstanding warrants for traffic violations and were arrested by LSU Police Department officers, said Capt. Cory Lalonde, LSUPD spokesman.
A vehicle traveling on Nicholson Drive at 4:10 a.m. swerved and cut off an LSUPD patrol car, and the officer stopped the vehicle, Lalonde said. The driver was identified as Darius C. Perkins, 23, of 59405 Kember Drive in Plaquemine, and his passenger was identified as Louis Butler III, 30, of 4636 Alvin Dark Drive #10.
Perkins was driving without a license, and a warrant check for both men produced multiple warrants from the Baton Rouge 19th Judicial Court and Baker City Court for traffic violations, Lalonde said.
Perkins was additionally charged with improper lane usage and driving with a suspended license.
Perkins and Butler, who are both unaffiliated with the University, were booked at East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.
