A young couple was killed in a head-on collision with a Honduran teen who was nearly seven times the blood alcohol limit and is in the U.S. illegally, according to Louisiana authorities.
The horrific crash unfolded just after 1 a.m. on Sunday in Lafourche Parish, LA.
Louisiana State Police (LSP) troopers responded to the scene of a fatal two-vehicle wreck on Highway 3090 near Port Fourchon.
There they found four injured passengers inside a Kia Rio and an uninjured male teen inside a Jeep Grand Cherokee.
The driver of the Jeep was identified as 18-year-old Axel Flores-Cordova, a citizen of Honduras.
The driver of the Kia was identified as Rylan Oncale, 18, and his front seat passenger was reportedly his 18-year-old girlfriend, Taliyah Crochet. Both were wearing seatbelts, authorities say.
Investigators believe the Jeep driven by Flores-Cordova drifted across the center lane, ultimately slamming head-on into the Kia.
Crochet was pronounced deceased at the scene. Oncale was rushed to a nearby hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
Two unidentified passengers in the rear of the Kia were treated for moderate injuries.
“Troopers determined Flores-Cordova to be impaired and placed him under arrest. He provided a voluntary breath sample, which revealed a blood alcohol concentration nearly seven times over the underage legal limit,” LSP explained in a press release.
“He was booked into the Lafourche Parish Detention Center on two counts of vehicular homicide, two counts of first degree vehicular negligent injuring, DWI first offense, open alcoholic container in vehicle, driving left of center, no driver’s license, and no seatbelt.”
Additionally, Immigration and Customs Enforcement lodged a detainer against Flores-Cordova.
Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA) released a statement on Tuesday confirming Flores-Cordova is illegally present in the U.S.
“It’s just not right. Unspeakable grief. Two beautiful Louisiana American teenagers killed by a drunk driving illegal alien. Two more American families destroyed by Mayorkas and Biden,” Rep. Higgins wrote on social media.
“Becca and I are heartbroken for the kids and their family but I’m also enraged and I’m ready to see Mayorkas take that long walk.”
An investigation is ongoing.
