A single vehicle crash on LA 31 at Little Teche Road in St. Landry Parish has claimed the life of 32 year old Clarence Robins of Opelousas, La.  Police say the crash happened just before 8 a.m. Sunday.

An initial investigation by State Police revealed that the crash occurred as Robins was driving northbound on LA 31 and entered a left curve.  Police say for unknown reasons, Robins failed to negotiate the curve, ran off of the right side of the roadway, and struck a tree.

Robins was not wearing a seat belt and was pronounced dead on scene.

Impairment is not suspected to be a contributing factor in the crash, however; toxicology samples were obtained from Robins and submitted to the Louisiana State Police Crime Lab for analysis.
