Man Jailed After Molino Carjacking, FHP Chase Into Cantonment
October 7, 2014
A carjacking at a Molino bar landed an Escambia County man behind bars.
William Madison Arrant, 41, was charged with carjacking, grand theft of a motor vehicle, fleeing or eluding police and driving with a suspended license after the incident Saturday night at Louie’s Bar on Molino Road.
The victim, described as Arrant’s ex-girlfriend, told deputies that she and Arrant were in her Jeep outside the bar when they got into an argument. She reported that Arrant physically twisted her arm and took her keys. She reported the vehicle stolen after he drove away.
A short time later, Arrant was clocked at about 20 mph over the speed limit on Highway 29 by a Florida Highway Patrol trooper. When he failed to stop, Arrant was pursued by the trooper to Countri Lane in Cantonment where he rain into a wooded area on foot. Arrant was located and taken into custody by a K-9 unit from Escambia County Sheriff’s Office.
Arrant remained in the Escambia County Jail late early Tuesday with bond set at $65,000.

You can not fix stupid.
She already misses him and wants him back but doesn’t have the money to get him out of jail so he and she will have to wait to see if he can get the bond reduced.
