Got word that kids were pulled alive from wreckage alive. Up to 5 from eyewitness that is not first responder.

Not a good picture though. That is great news that they pulled 5 kids out alive.

Big prayers for those involved as some of the vehicles seemed utterly destroyed.

Fox44 News just reported on air there is at least one fatality

So you’re saying they’re alive?
Or was the wreckage alive?

Damn I was wondering what was going on. They have the interstate blocked off starting at the Prairieville exit

State police have arrested a man after one person was killed and 18 others were injured after an 11 vehicle pileup on I-10 East in Prairieville.
Around 9 p.m. Wednesday night, officials shut down the eastbound lanes of I-10 between Highway 74 and Highway 30, near the Cornerview Road overpass. The roadway was reopened before 4 a.m. Thursday. An initial investigation revealed that traffic was stopped on I-10 East due to a previous crash.
For reasons still under investigation, 56-year-old John White of Mississippi failed to stop his 18-wheeler and caused a chain reaction involving 11 vehicles.

Impairment is not suspect to be a factor in the crash.
White was determined to the at fault for the crash. He was booked into the Ascension Parish Jail for negligent homicide and 18 counts of negligent injuring.

I assume every wreck in Baton Rouge involves at least one big rig. Sorry to hear that this one claimed the life of someone.
I think there is construction in that area too, right?

Texting, drinking, exhaustion, and stupidity are all forms of impairment IMO.
