A Minden woman who was critically injured in a single vehicle motorcycle crash on August 15, 2010, in Webster Parish has died at LSUMC, Shreveport LA. Donna L.

Arcadia – This afternoon on August 15, 2010, at 1:36 p.m., Louisiana State Police Troop G responded to a single vehicle crash involving a motorcycle on US 80, 4.4 miles west of LA 154 at milepost 69.4 in Bienville Parish, which critically injured a 45-year-old woman from Minden.

According to investigating troopers, 45-year-old Donna L. Gray was driving west on US 80 operating a red 2003 Honda motorcycle when she lost control of the motorcycle and was ejected. Thereafter, Gray and the motorcycle impacted the roadway.

Vehicle condition and the wet roadway from a recent rain are suspected factors in the crash.

Speed and impairment are not suspected to be factors in the crash. Routine toxicology test results are pending and the crash remains under investigation.
