The incident happened just after 7:30 p.m. Saturday. The man reportedly drove into a creek on North Oats Street, between Preston Street and Washington Street. Police say the driver hit another vehicle before that incident and left the scene. Officers say another vehicle began following the man after he left, and by the time officers arrived on the scene, his car was caught on a drainage culvert and partially submerged in water.

"We were able to knock out the back glass then reach through and unlock the front door with another officer's assistance. We were able to get the keys from him, and after a few more minutes of struggling, we were able to get him out of the car," said Cpl. Les Munn with the Texarkana, Arkansas Police Department.
