West Monroe – On Saturday, November 30, 2024, shortly before 3:00 p.m., Troopers with Louisiana State Police Troop F began investigating a single-vehicle fatal crash on Louisiana Highway 143 near New Wall Lake Road. The crash claimed the life of 71-year-old Johnnie Lott Jr. of Carthage, Texas. The initial investigation revealed that a 2015 Toyota Avalon, driven by Lott, was traveling north on Louisiana Highway 143. For reasons still under investigation, the Toyota traveled off the right side of the road and overturned. Lott, who was unrestrained, was pronounced dead at the scene. Although impairment is not a suspected factor in this crash, routine toxicology samples were collected and will be submitted for analysis. This crash remains under investigation. Troopers wish to remind motorists to always make good decisions while in a motor vehicle. Never drive impaired, fatigued, or distracted. Follow all traffic laws and ensure every occupant is properly restrained. While not all crashes are survivable, taking simple precautions such as these can often mean the difference between life and death. Contact Information: | |||
