The Louisiana, yes, Louisiana State Police issued the following statement.
On Sunday, Troopers with Louisiana State Police Troop B responded to reports of a Toyota Supra being driven recklessly on Interstate 10 near Bonnabel Boulevard in Jefferson Parish. The vehicle had also struck a concrete barrier and sustained a tire blowout.
Troopers later located the Supra traveling south on Interstate 310 in St. Charles Parish and conducted a traffic stop. While speaking with the driver, identified as 40-year-old Victor Rivas of Montz, Troopers observed signs of impairment. During the DWI investigation, Rivas fled on foot and jumped from the elevated portion of Interstate 310 into the swamp below.
Troopers and deputies with the St. Charles Parish Sheriff's Office began searching for Rivas, who was later spotted walking along U.S. Highway 61. When law enforcement approached, he fled again into a swampy area, where he was attacked by an alligator and sustained injuries to both arms. Despite his injuries, Rivas continued fleeing before being located and apprehended with the assistance of drone technology.
Rivas was transported to a local hospital for treatment and later charged with DWI and Resisting an Officer. Additional warrants were obtained for Hit and Run and Careless Operation in connection with the earlier crash in Jefferson Parish.
Impaired driving can lead to serious and unpredictable consequences. Motorists are urged to make responsible decisions, plan ahead, and always designate a sober driver. Louisiana State Police appreciates the strong partnership and coordinated efforts of the St. Charles Parish Sheriff’s Office in bringing this incident to a successful resolution.

Score one for the gator.
That’s a real coonass. Not one of those fake ones on cable TV.

Alligators have been known to take a bite out of crime.
Picture?
I would have let him marinate in the swamp overnight with the drones on him then catch him about lunch the next day. That would have been a lesson!
Al E. Gator...https://i.dailymail.com/1s/2026/06/09/17/109232259-15886317-image-a-49_1781022116367.jpg
That was fun. Let’s do it again.
Need to give that gator a badge and put it on the payroll!
Keeping it real in bayou country
Is the alligator alright?
Until this guy, "Alligator Arms" meant that you didn't want to pick up the dinner check.
On occasion, LoserAnny Man is a strong challenger to Florida Man. I give him credit for continuing to flee after being a gator chew toy for a “bit.”
He’s Crocodile DUIndeed.

Coonass-Crazy but persistent, long-suffering, spirited, freedom loving, with a flair for reckless daring-do. Worthy of a comic hero figure in Marvel or DC Comics as 'Mutant Swamp Lizard'. In the comic version, the attacking Gator's DNA would invade the Coon-ass' morphology, producing scales, a tail, and a penchant for poodles.

Snort, snicker.
That's impressive. Depending on where he went over the side, some of 310 near 61 ain't no girly jump.

At least he didn’t shoot at the cops while trying to escape, like certain Mississippians in the news.
Publish a libelous JP article? Just sayin....
Missing is just what exactly will legally support the DUI charge in court.
