Kyren Lacy, a former LSU large receiver who had declared for the 2025 NFL Draft, was discovered useless in Houston Saturday night time, in line with a number of studies.
He was 24.
The reason for dying is suspected to be suicide, in line with a number of studies.
Lacy’s dying comes months after he was arrested for his alleged involvement in a crash that killed a 78-year-old man in December.
A grand jury was scheduled to start listening to the case on Monday, per a number of studies.
Lacy, who took half in LSU’s professional day on March 26, was charged with negligent murder, felony hit-and-run with dying and reckless operation of a car.
He was accused of rushing in a 2023 Dodge Charger and crossing the middle line in a no-passing zone, inflicting different drivers to swerve, which led to the dying of Herman Corridor. Lacy then allegedly fled the scene.
“The driver of the Dodge, later identified as 24-year-old Kyren Lacy of Thibodaux, recklessly passed multiple vehicles at a high rate of speed by crossing the centerline and entering the northbound lane while in a designated No-Passing Zone,” a Louisiana State Police Division launch stated in January.
“As Lacy was illegally passing the opposite autos, the motive force of a northbound pickup truck abruptly braked and swerved to the correct to keep away from a head-on collision with the approaching Dodge. Touring behind the pickup was a 2017 Kia Cadenza whose driver swerved left to keep away from the on coming Dodge Charger. Because the Kia Cadenza took evasive motion to keep away from influence with the Dodge, it crossed the centerline and collided head-on with a southbound 2017 Kia Sorento.
“Following the crash, Lacy drove around the crash scene and fled south on LA Hwy 20 without stopping to render aid, call emergency services, or report his involvement in the crash. Troop C was later notified that Hall, who was a passenger in the Kia Sorrento, succumbed to his injuries from the crash after being transported to a hospital for treatment.”
Lacy, who started his faculty profession at Louisiana-Lafayette, transferred to LSU and performed three seasons there.
He had 58 catches for 866 yards and 9 touchdowns in the course of the 2024 season.
