An Alabama woman has died after an early morning accident.

State Troopers said it happened just before 4:30 a.m. Sunday at Belle Chasse Highway and Villary Street.

Police say 23 year old Megan Manning was walking in the roadway when she was hit by a Ford F250, driven by 65-year-old Dean Thomas of Marrerro.

Investigators believe Manning was impaired at the time of the crash and toxicology tests are pending an autopsy.

Troopers added Thomas was given a breathalyzer test, and was found to be over the legal limit.

Thomas was booked into the Plaquemines Parish Jail on vehicular homicide charges.
