Truck Hit and Killed Man on Interstate

On Sunday, July 19, a truck hit and killed a man on Interstate 10 in Slidell.

According to Louisiana State troopers the accident happened shortly after 9 p.m. on the Interstate near Oak Harbor Boulevard.

Ricky Nunez, aged 46 and of Pearl River was driving east on Interstate 10 when he stopped his vehicle on the right shoulder due to mechanical problems. He then decided to walk across the interstate and 25 year old David Wolfe of Slidell driving a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado, hit him.

Wolfe attempted to avoid Nunez but was unable to and immediately afterwards 52 year old Dreux Seghers of Ocean Springs, MS driving a 2005 Land Rover ran into the Silverado.

State Police went on to say that say both Wolfe and Seghers showed no traces of alcohol following samples being taken and at this stage neither are facing charges as the investigation continues. They also reminded pedestrians of the danger of walking on the interstates.
