OK. Abbeville, Louisiana - last weekend (around June 4th). 52-year-old Gregory Menard attempts to pass several vehicles in a curve "clearly marked as a no passing zone." Menard's vehicle slammed head on into a car driven by 23-year-old Emily Landry of Lafayette.
Menard sustained moderate injuries in the crash, but a passenger in his vehicle, Gregory's brother, 55-year-old Kenneth Menard of Abbeville, was not wearing a seatbelt and was ejected from the vehicle. Kenneth was pronounced dead at the scene.
From The Advertiser: Trooper Stephen Hammons, a public affairs officer for the Louisiana State Police, said in a news release Menard was suspected of being impaired and was placed under arrest for DWI 4th offense, passing in a no-passing zone, vehicular homicide and vehicular negligent injury.
4th offensive DWI. Hmmm. I wonder if Gregory Menard had to inform his neighbors of his presence in the neighborhood?
