Fatal Multi-Vehicle Crash in Webster Parish Kills Two, Leaves Two Injured

Minden – On August 1, 2025, at approximately 10:40 p.m., Troopers from Louisiana State Police Troop G responded to a three-vehicle crash on U.S. Highway 80 near Barbeque Road. The crash claimed the lives of 50-year-old Brian Frost and 45-year-old Kendrick Fisher, both of Haughton.

The preliminary investigation revealed that a 2017 GMC Yukon, driven by Frost, was traveling west in the eastbound lane of U.S. Highway 80. At the same time, a 2024 Kia Forte, driven by Fisher, and a 2016 Dodge Charger were both traveling east on U.S. Highway 80. For reasons still under investigation, the GMC collided head-on with the Kia and overturned, causing the Kia to then collide with the Dodge.

Frost, who was properly restrained at the time of the crash, sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene. Fisher, who was properly restrained, sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene. A passenger in the Kia, who was properly restrained, sustained severe injuries and was transported to a local hospital for treatment. The driver of the Dodge, who was properly restrained, sustained minor injuries and was transported to a local hospital for treatment. Impairment on the part of Frost is suspected. Toxicology samples were taken and submitted for analysis. This crash remains under investigation.

Alcohol and drug impairment remain a contributing factor in nearly half of all fatal crashes in Louisiana. These substances severely impact your awareness, decision-making abilities, and reaction times, leading to devastating consequences on the road. Troopers wish to remind motorists of the importance of making good decisions while operating a motor vehicle. Never drive while impaired, fatigued, or distracted, and obey all traffic laws. While not all crashes are survivable, taking simple precautions like these can mean the difference between life and death.
