A crash in West Monroe Saturday resulted in one death and injuries to two children.
West Monroe Police said Eduardo Rodriguez, 44, was driving south on Well Road when he crossed into the northbound lane and struck another vehicle head-on. The reason Rodriguez crossed into the opposing lane is still under investigation by WMPD.
Police said Rodriguez was not wearing a seat belt and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Two children in the vehicle hit by Rodriguez were taken to a local hospital for minor injuries.
Toxicology samples were taken from both drivers involved. WMPD said no impairment is suspected of the northbound driver, but Rodriguez’s condition is pending sample analysis.
