The LSP will hold their child safety seat installation event this Saturday in Lake Charles.

The Louisiana State Police Grant A Wish Organization Troop D has granted wishes like meeting Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, Spongebob and many more. They have sent local kids to many huge events. It's a great organization and the McNeese Cowboys agree. They hosted a fund raiser for the Grant a Wish at Friday nights Cowboys game.

So far there are no weather related road closures in Southwest Louisiana. There are several to the north of us though.

This story seems to repeat with different names. This one is even more puzzling since he was previously arrested for vehicular homicide.

A 26-year-old Sulphur man is in deep trouble after state troopers pulled him over, found him to be drunk and in possession of stolen liquor -- all AFTER he had delivered his students for the morning.

UPDATE 2:30 p.m.:  Officials have since confirmed that 100 vehicles were involved in the crash, which was likely caused by mid-morning fog.  Two are dead and dozens are injured, according to KFDM-TV.  I-10 westbound is now open, but eastbound will continue to be closed for a while.

If you are expecting guest from west of Winnie... they may be late. The delay is because  of a huge pile up near Winnie Texas. The wreck happened in the fog at around eight  this morning. It will eventually affect our area.

If you know anyone headed over from Lafayette or further west ... you might want to warn them. They may be sitting on I-10 for a long time.
