'Inconsistencies' found in police report on LSU's Kyren Lacy - ESPN

An investigator at the Lafourche Parish district attorney's office stated in a report released Wednesday that the car that crashed into a vehicle and killed a 78-year-old man was not facing an «imminent head-on crash» with the vehicle driven by former LSU wide receiver Kyren Lacy.

Herman Hall died from his injuries hours after the Dec. 17, 2024, accident.

The report estimates Lacy was driving a Dodge Charger 88 mph heading southbound on Louisiana Highway 20 prior to the collision. The posted speed limit was 40 mph. The report cites video that shows Lacy entering the northbound lane and passing four vehicles in a no-passing zone. The report estimates that Lacy was back in the southbound lane 92.3 yards from the site of the accident before the crash occurred.

According to the report dated April 11, 2025, the driver of a pickup truck going northbound «thought Kyren Lacy was going to hit him so he pressed his brakes» and turned right into a parking lot.

The report states that the vehicle that crashed into Hall, a Kia Cadenza, was traveling «too close» behind the pickup truck, «which caused her to take evasive action to avoid hitting the back of [the truck.]»

The report also states that the driver of the Cadenza turned the wheel 75 degrees to the driver's side and into a collision with the car Hall was a passenger in.

Lacy was cited with felony negligent homicide and hit-and-run driving and misdemeanor reckless driving. The Lafourche Parish district attorney's office had not formally charged Lacy and had been preparing to send the case to a grand jury for an indictment on April 14.

Lacy, 24, died April 12 in Houston of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound in his car during a pursuit by authorities, according to a Harris
