During the investigation, it was revealed that Richard was allegedly driving a 2018 Dodge Journey eastbound on LA.190 in the right lane. At the same time, a 2019 Freightliner was traveling east in the right lane of LA.190 after allegedly completing a legal U-turn. For reasons still under investigation, the Dodge allegedly struck the rear of the Freightliner, officials reported.
According to officials, Richard sustained serious injuries and died at the scene. A juvenile passenger in the Dodge also sustained serious injuries and was transported to a nearby hospital. The driver of the Freightliner was not injured.
Although impairment is not suspected, the driver of the Freightliner provided a voluntary breath sample, which showed no alcohol detected, officials said. Routine toxicology samples were collected from Richard for analysis.
The crash remains under investigation.
