A Boyce man was killed after a crash involving a Boyce police officer on Highway 1 just north of Rapides Station Road.
On November 24 around 2 a.m., Louisiana State Police says Randy Jefferys, 52, was standing with a bicycle near the white fog line in the southbound lane of HWY 1. A 2019 Boyce Police Department Dodge Charger, driven by an on-duty Boyce police officer, was traveling south on HWY 1 and impacted Jefferys in the southbound lane.
As a result, Jefferys sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. He was transported to the Rapides Parish Coroner’s Office for further identification and toxicology screening.
The Boyce police officer was not injured in the crash and impairment is not suspected with a routine toxicology analysis pending.
