Double Fatality Crash In Grant Parish

Early this morning, a single vehicle crash killed two people from Montgomery, LA.

Troopers responded to the crash around 6:00 am, which occurred on LA Hwy 34 near Duffy Lane. The crash involved a 2009 Chevrolet pickup, driven by Darren L. Treadway (W/M 30 yrs). The Chevrolet was east bound on LA Hwy 34 when Treadway lost control and exited the left side of the roadway. After exiting the roadway, the vehicle collided with a guardrail before overturning and colliding with a tree. The Chevrolet then entered a creek and became submerged.

Treadway was not wearing his seatbelt and was pronounced dead. His only passenger, identified as Amy R. Chelette (W/F 25 yrs), was not wearing her seatbelt and was pronounced dead.

Routine toxicology tests are pending. The crash remains under investigation.
