Early this morning, a single vehicle crash killed one person and injured two others.

Troopers responded to the crash around 6:20 am, which occurred on LA Hwy 471 south of LA Hwy 34 in Winn Parish.  The crash involved a 1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass, driven by Lakisha D. McMillian (B/F 31 yrs) of Winnfield, LA.  The Oldsmobile was south bound on LA Hwy 471 when McMillian lost control and exited the right side of the roadway.  After exiting the right side, the vehicle reentered the roadway and exited the left side before colliding with two trees.
