Unrestrained Louisiana Man Killed in Early Morning Single-Vehicle Crash on LA 182
Louisiana – On May 28, 2022, shortly after 2:00 a.m., Louisiana State Police Troop C was notified of a single-vehicle fatal crash on Louisiana Highway 182 near Morristown Street. Bryan Lombas, 29, of Marrero, Louisiana, was killed in the crash. According to preliminary investigations, Lombas was driving east on LA Hwy 182 in a 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe. For reasons still under investigation, Lombas traveled off the roadway to the right while in a left curve. He attempted to regain control of the Chevrolet by steering left, but overcorrected, causing the vehicle to rotate, cross the centerline, and exit to the left. The Chevrolet then flipped over and collided with nearby parked vehicles before coming to a stop on its roof.
Lombas was unrestrained at the time of the accident, sustained fatal injuries, and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Lafourche Parish Coroner’s Office.
A toxicology sample was collected from Lombas and sent for testing. This crash is still being investigated.
Car accidents are unpredictable and can be violent. Taking just 3 seconds to buckle up is one of your best defenses in the event of a car accident and could prevent a State Trooper from knocking on a family’s door. Wear your seatbelt at all times. Every journey. Every single time. There is simply too much at stake.
Troop C has investigated 19 fatal crashes resulting in 20 deaths in 2022.
