The Louisiana State Patrol says one man was killed in a crash in Lafourche Parish.
The accident occurred on LA24 about a mile north of LA3235.
The victim is identified as 25-year-old Ediberto Lopez-Bados of Larose.
Accident investigators established Lopez-Bados was traveling north on LA Hwy 24 while driving a 2011 Nissan Altima.
For reasons still under investigation, the Altima crossed the centerline and struck a southbound 2018 Mack truck head-on.
After impact, both vehicles traveled off the roadway into a small drainage canal.
Although Lopez-Bados was properly restrained, he suffered fatal injuries and died at the scene.
The driver of the Mack, who was also restrained, suffered minor injuries and was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment.
A standard toxicology sample was collected from both drivers and submitted for analysis.
This crash remains under investigation.
