Lake Charles, Louisiana - At around 6:50 a.m. on April 16, deputies from the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office were sent to the intersection of Red Davis McCollister Road and Common Street in Lake Charles, Louisiana following a reported collision.

At the beginning of the investigation, authorities were informed that an older white four-door car was headed east on Red Davis McCollister Road, and it forced a motorcycle off the road. As a result, the rider was thrown from the motorcycle, sustaining severe injuries.
