identify this bug

Convent, LA

I found this bug and I have never seen one like this. I attached some pictures- I hope they are clear enough.

Also could you tell me a little about the bug?

what does it eat?

This is a larva of a ground beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae). Ones like this are general predators on other small arthropods, especially caterpillars.
