NEW IBERIA, La. (
KLFY) — An Iberia Parish motorist died today in a single-vehicle crash.
Today, shortly after 1 a.m., troopers with Louisiana State Police Troop I began investigating a single-vehicle fatality crash on US 90 Frontage Road near Captain Cade Road. The crash claimed the life of 44-year-old Renota Lowther of New Iberia.
Officials said the preliminary investigation revealed Lowther was driving a 2012 Infiniti M37 west on US 90 North Frontage Road. For reasons still under investigation, the Infiniti veered off the roadway to the right. Officials said Lowther then overcorrected, causing the Infiniti to cross back over the roadway before exiting to the left, where it struck an embankment and overturned.
Lowther, who was unrestrained, sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene according to authorities.
Routine toxicology samples were collected for analysis. This crash remains under investigation.
