A two-truck head-on crash in Sabine Parish Saturday left one teen dead and sent another to the hospital, officials there report.

Just before midnight Saturday, Kelby Pilcher of Florien was eastbound on State Highway 118 four miles east of Florien in a GM pickup when the vehicle veered over the center line and crashed head-on into a 2008 Chevy truck driven by Michael Fair, 18, of Many. Pilcher suffered traumatic internal injuries and died in the crash, while Fair was taken to Sabine Medical Center by Med Express, where he was treated and released. The crash remains under investigation by the Louisiana State Police.
