Raceland – Shortly after 7:00 p.m. on June 14, 2020, Troopers with Troop C began investigating a single-vehicle fatality crash on LA 182 just east of US 90. The crash took the life of 43-year-old Anthony Singleton.
The preliminary investigation revealed Singleton was traveling westbound on LA 182 in a 2002 GMC Envoy. For reasons still under investigation, Singleton lost control of his vehicle and he ran off of the roadway to the right. His vehicle then hit a utility pole and rolled over into a bayou upside down. A passing motorist stopped and removed Singleton from his vehicle, but he suffered fatal injuries and died on the scene. Seat belt use and impairment is unknown at this time, and a standard toxicology report is pending. This crash remains under investigation.
