Naked Driver Arrested In Louisiana

Early this past Monday, December 8, 2025, a DeSoto Parish patrol sergeant responded to an overturned 18-wheeler crash on I-49 when he noticed another vehicle curiously parked on the median.

As the officer approached the vehicle, he found Tracarlos Audra McNeil, a 49-year-old from Houston, Texas in the driver's seat of the car completely naked.

McNeil was clearly agitated and was verbally aggressive in speaking to the sergeant, eventually taking off in an attempt to flee the scene, dangerously speeding down I-49 the wrong way.

Deputies quickly gave chase, eventually using a vehicle maneuver to spin McNeil's vehicle into the median.

At one point in the video you'll see McNeil being shot with a taser as he repeatedly punched the K-9 officer in an attempt to get the dog to let go of his arm.

McNeil was taken into custody and then taken to the hospital for evaluation then charged with aggravated flight from an officer and resisting an officer.

No information has been released as to the cause of McNeil's actions.
