Kyren Lacy Dies From Self-Inflicted Gunshot Wound During Police Chase

The Advocate’s Wilson Alexander has reported details about the death of former LSU wide receiver Kyren Lacy from the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.

Lacy was involved with a verbal argument with a family member, and he discharged a gun into the ground, according to the sheriff’s office. When the Constable’s Office responded to the scene at approximately 11:15 p.m., they said they learned Lacy had driven away in his car.

When law enforcement tried to stop him 20 minutes later, Lacy fled. He was involved in a car chase for several miles and crashed, the Sheriff’s Office said.
