Lake Charles –

 

Yesterday evening at approximately 6:00 p.m. Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office deputies were dispatched to the intersection of Dunn Ferry Road and Tiffany Lane in Moss Bluff in reference to a two vehicle accident.

           

The initial investigation revealed a motorcycle was traveling eastbound on Dunn Ferry Road when a SUV,  that was traveling westbound, made a left hand turn onto Tiffany Lane, in front of the motorcycle. 

           

The driver, Jonathon A. Wallace, 34, Sulphur, was thrown from the motorcycle.  He was transported to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.  He was wearing a helmet.
