CADDO PARISH, LA (KSLA) -
Citations are pending against the driver of an 18-wheeler involved in wreck that killed the driver of another 18 wheeler in Caddo Parish Tuesday morning.
It happened on Highway 79 near the Relay Station. The Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office says a convoy of 18 wheelers belonging to Frac Tech was traveling northbound when they began to slow down for an unrelated northbound vehicle that was making a turn. Deputies say the 18 wheeler in the rear of the pack was following too closely and clipped the 18 wheeler ahead of it. The vehicle in the rear then entered the southbound lane and hit an oncoming 18 wheeler belonging to Plains Marketing.
The driver in the Plains Marketing vehicle died in the accident. The driver of the Frac Tech vehicle was taken by ambulance to LSUHSC with serious injuries.
The name of the Plains Marketing driver has not been released pending confirmation by the Coroner's Office, which should take place tomorrow.
Driver of the Frac Tech truck was released from the hospital. He is Larry Gatson II, 25, of Spearsville, LA. Citations against him are pending.
Hwy. 79 was closed between Buncombe Road and Hwy. 80 for several hours, reopening around 6 p.m. Tuesday.
The accident is being investigated by the Caddo Sheriff's Traffic Safety Unit.
