HOME THROUGH ANY SMARTPHONE. KENNER POLICE ARE INVESTIGATING AFTER A PERSON WAS STRUCK AND KILLED THIS MORNING. THE INCIDENT CAUSED A LOT OF BACKUPS DURING THE MORNING COMMUTE. WDSU REPORTER SHAY O’CONNOR HAS THE DETAILS ON WHAT HAPPENED. >> THE SCENE IS OFFICIALLY CLEARED ALONG WILLIAMS BOULEVARD , BUT EARLIER THIS MORNING, I’M TOLD THERE WAS TRAFFIC IN THIS AREA AS THE KENNER POLICE DEPARTMENT WORKED TO CLEAR THE SCENE.

IT HAPPENED AROUND 6:00 A.M., CAUSING LANE CLOSURES FOR DRIVERS. OFFICIALS TELL ME THE DRIVER WAS NOT AT FAULT, BUT WAS TAKEN INTO CUSTODY BECAUSE HE OR SHE DID NOT HAVE THEIR DRIVER’S LICENSE.
