The agency also recently placed on paid leave Master Trooper Chris Hollingsworth, one of six troopers who responded to the crash site. Federal authorities have opened a civil rights investigation as new questions have surfaced about the death of a Black man after a high-speed police chase in northern Louisiana last year. It was not clear whether Hollingsworth had an attorney who could comment on his behalf. The U.S. Attorneys Office in Shreveport confirmed the ongoing federal investigation but hasnt commented on its status. Local prosecutors in Union Parish decided not to bring any charges against the responding troopers but referred the case to the U.S. Justice Department.
The U.S. Highway Patrol is currently aware of the deceased Mr. Richard Wessel.
