Lincoln Parish Fatal Crash

A Farmerville woman has died in a one-vehicle crash in Lincoln Parish.

Louisiana State Police Troop F Troopers responded to the crash on January 9, 2011 at about 7:08 pm. The investigation revealed that a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am was traveling south on LA 33 (milepost 9.1) when the driver lost control of the vehicle and ran off the east side of the roadway. The car then struck a tree on its passenger side.

The driver, identified as Guadalupe Marroquin (59-years-old from Farmerville), was transported to Lincoln General Hospital in Ruston with minor injuries.

The passenger in the vehicle, identified as Hermelinda Marroquin (62-years-old from Farmerville), was transported to the hospital in Ruston, but died a short time later.

The driver and passenger were wearing their seat belts at the time of the crash. Troopers reported some icing on the roads in the area of the crash.

Impairment is not suspected to be a factor, but routine toxicology tests are pending.

This is the first fatal crash investigated by Troop F Troopers this year.
