A driver led police on a high speed chase through Arkansas with a casket on top of his car.
Police spotted Kevin Cholousky, 39, parked on the side of a highway in Little Rock with the coffin atop his Hummer.
When they stopped to see if he needed help at around 5.30pm on Wednesday, Cholousky raced off.
The stunned officers then began chasing him down, according to Arkansas' Highway and Transportation Department.
Witness Dianna Sutliff Cooper said she was driving down the I-30 when the vehicle raced past yer, with several patrol cars behind it.
She told Fox News: 'I was on my way home from work when this guy came up behind me in a Hummer with blue lights flashing behind him.
'Then I noticed a coffin on top and wondered what was going on.'
Cholousky was eventually caught, arrested and charged with reckless driving, fleeing a vehicle and fictitious tags.
Police still do not know what he was doing with the casket or if anyone was inside it.
