Singing in the ... Pokey?

Guess you have heard about X-Factor contestant who was arrested for stealing a car in Slidell after he was green-lighted to go on to New York next week for the show... 

From Slidell Police: 

Officer Michael Giardina spotted the stolen vehicle on Fremaux Avenue, which was being driven by Wilson, and attempted to stop it. Wilson refused to stop for the officer, and led Slidell Police on a high speed chase through the city; going down Fremaux Avenue to Front Street, then down Gause Boulevard to Interstate-10.  During the chase, Wilson exceeded speeds in excess of 75 miles per hour through the city, rammed a police car, and showed no signs of giving up as the chase made its way onto Interstate-10.  Officer Giardina took this opportunity to perform a Tactical Vehicle Intervention, or what is commonly referred to as the "Pit Maneuver", on the stolen vehicle.  Ironically, the chase ended where it started, and the stolen vehicle came to a rest in a grassy area on Interstate 10 near Fremaux Avenue.  Wilson attempted to flee from the vehicle after the crash, but was quickly apprehended by Slidell Police.

At this time, it is unknown if Wilson will be out of jail in time to attend next week's auditions of "The X Factor".
