Parish accident results in fatality
Toxicology tests are still pending in a Franklin Parish car crash that left one man dead.
James E. Pruitt, 54, of Rayville, died as a result of injuries sustained in the one-vehicle accident on Louisiana Highway 860 in Franklin Parish.
Louisiana State Police officials said alcohol use was suspected.
According to Louisiana State Police spokesman Mark Dennis, Pruitt lost control of his 2004 Ford pick-up after failing to negotiate a curve in the road.
"The truck traveled onto the right shoulder where the driver overcorrected the vehicle and crossed back across the roadway," Dennis said. "The truck then struck a bridge guardrail where it flipped over and partially ejected the unrestrained driver."
Pruitt was pronounced dead at the scene and was the only one in the truck. |
