State police say two men and a woman have been arrested after a pickup hit and killed a pedestrian on Louisiana Highway 24 in Gray.
Trooper First Class Jesse LaGrange said in a news release 53-year-old Troy Jackson, of Houma, was pronounced dead late Wednesday night by the Terrebonne Parish Coroner's Office.
LaGrange says the truck's driver, 21-year-old Draven Henden, of Bourg, faces charges of felony hit-and-run and obstruction of justice. His passenger, 20-year-old Andrew Martin, and girlfriend, 18-year-old Valen Billiot, both of Houma, face a charge of obstruction of justice.
LaGrange said Martin and Billiot provided false information about the crash to try to help Henden avoid charges.
Online jail records do not list attorneys for those arrested.
