Louisiana State Police are investigating a wrong-way crash on I-12 in Tangipahoa Parish that killed a teenager early Monday morning.
Troopers responded to the crash site around 2 a.m.
Investigators say 18-year-old Brayden Sanders of Kentwood was driving a pickup truck eastbound in the westbound lanes of the freeway and ran head-on into a westbound tractor-trailer.
After the collision, Sanders's truck rolled over. He was unrestrained and died at the scene.
The other driver was taken to a local hospital with minor injuries.
