Texas man killed Sunday morning in Lafayette Parish truck crash
DUSON, La. (KLFY) -- A Texas man was killed early Sunday morning in a truck crash on I-10 in Lafayette Parish, authorities said.
The crash claimed the life of Oscar Morales, 61, of South Houston, Texas.
Louisiana State Police Troop I began investigating a single-vehicle fatality crash just before 4 a.m. Sunday involving a commercial motor vehicle on I-10 east of La. 85 in Lafayette Parish.
Investigators said a 2020 Kenworth pulling a box trailer driven by Morales was traveling east on I-10. For reasons still under investigation, the Kenworth traveled off the road to the left into the median before striking the cable barrier and overturning.
Morales was pronounced dead at the scene. Routine toxicology samples were collected for analysis.
This crash remains under investigation.
