Two Die in Lincoln Parish Crash

Two Lincoln Parish residents died in a single vehicle crash this morning.

The crash occurred on LA 151 about 5 miles west of Dubach on July 19, 2009 at about 11:15 am. A 1995 Ford truck was traveling south on LA 151 when it ran off the right side of the road in a curve. After leaving the road, the truck struck a large tree and came to rest. It appears that the truck was traveling at a high rate of speed when it ran off the road.

The driver, identified as 48-year-old Carl Causey from Choudrant, and his passenger, identified as 37-year-old Kimberly Pope from Ruston, were pronounced dead at the scene by the Lincoln Parish Coroner's Office. Seat belt use is unknown. Alcohol use is suspected and routine toxicology tests are pending.

In 2009, Louisiana State Police Troop F Troopers have investigated twenty-two (22) fatal crashes resulting in twenty-five (25) deaths.
