Charles Remedies

  An unloaded pulpwood truck, which was traveling at a high rate
of speed on La. Highway 475 at 1:20 a.m., Saturday, Nov. 27, went
out of control and crashed, resulting in the deaths of one 24
year old man and three teenagers, according to the La. State
Police. Investigating officers at the scene included Troopers
James D. Napier, H. W. Davis, and G. O. Elliott Jr., all of Troop
H., Leesville.

  The accident occurred about five miles south of Zwolle.

  The victims were Charles Remedies, 24, of Zwolle, Larry D.
Malmay, 16, and brothers, Leslie Lee Campbell, 17, and Austin
Curtis Campbell, 16, all of Noble.

  The teenagers were all passengers in a truck driven by Remedies.
According to a witness, the truck, which was traveling north at a
high rate of speed, went out of control after passing his
vehicle. The truck crossed the center line and went off the road
on the left side, traveling approximately 120 feet before ramming
into a tree. The force of the impact snapped the truck into two
separate parts. Investigating officers said the four were killed
instantly. They were all pronounced dead at the scene by Sabine
Parish Coroner, Dr. R. J. Oosta.
