Caddo Sheriff’s deputies arrested two men following a major crash on Friday, said Sheriff Steve Prator.

Just after 8 p.m., deputies responded to a single-car crash at the weigh station on I-20 East. 

According to Sgt. EJ Parker, the driver and passenger of a silver car got into an argument. At one point, the passenger grabbed the steering wheel causing the car to crash into a structure by the weigh station.

After further investigation, deputies discovered 11 pints of Promethazine syrup, a jar of marijuana and a scale inside the car.
