Former LSU wide receiver found dead in Houston

Former LSU wide receiver Kyren Lacy was found dead Saturday night in Houston, ESPN reported Sunday morning.

‘We’re saddened to learn of the tragic passing of former LSU Football student-athlete Kyren Lacy,’ LSU confirmed and said in a statement. ‘Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones, as well as his former teammates and coaches impacted by his passing.”

Lacy, 24, had run into legal trouble earlier this year, when he was accused of causing a crash that killed a 78-year-old man in December and then leaving the scene. He turned himself into authorities on Jan. 12 and was later released on $151,000 bail, according to police records. 

Lafourche (Louisiana) Parish Sheriff’s Office records, obtained by ESPN, said Lacy was charged with negligent homicide, felony hit-and-run with death and reckless operation of a vehicle.

A grand jury was to begin hearing evidence in the case Monday, according to WAFB-TV in Baton Rouge.

Lacy played three seasons at LSU, catching 58 passes last year for 866 yards and a team-leading nine touchdowns. He declared for the NFL draft on Dec. 19, two days after the crash, and did not play in LSU’s win over Baylor in the Texas Bowl.
