The husband of a woman who was taken on a multistate high-speed ride in the back of a pickup was released from jail Monday after being charged with aggravated domestic violence.

Nicholas Brewer, 26, 12150 Maddox Road, Tallulah, is accused of driving a pickup at high speeds from a home on U.S. 80 in Warren County to Interstate 20, then to Louisiana with his wife in the truck’s bed, Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace said.

Brewer and his wife had been arguing about their child when he got into the vehicle with the child and sped off, Pace said. His wife jumped in the back to get him to stop, but she was not successful.

He was stopped by Warren County and Madison Parish officials at the Delta, La., exit off Interstate 20, Pace said.

Brewer was released from the Warren County Jail Monday evening on $20,000.
