Slidell Man Dies in Single-Vehicle Crash on LA 433

Slidell – On Friday, October 30, 2020, shortly before 5:00 pm, Louisiana State Police Troop L began investigating a one vehicle fatal crash on LA 433 south of US Hwy 190 in St. Tammany Parish. The crash took the life of 46-year-old Jason A. Rodriquez of Slidell.

The initial investigation revealed that Rodriquez was traveling southbound on LA 433 in a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica when he exited the roadway. The vehicle impacted multiple trees before coming to a stop. Rodriquez was transported to a local hospital where he later died from injuries sustained in the crash. He was properly restrained and impairment is not suspected to a be a factor in the crash. As part of the ongoing investigation, a blood sample was taken from Rodriquez for scientific analysis.

Louisiana State Troopers wish to remind motorists to always make good decisions while in a motor vehicle. Never drive while impaired, fatigued, or distracted, always ensure every occupant is properly restrained, and follow all traffic laws. While not all crashes are survivable, taking simple precautions such as these can often mean the difference between life and death.
