At just 25 years old, Xavier Dewayne Green lost his life in a tragic single‑vehicle crash early Sunday morning, shaking the tight‑knit community of Shreveport. The young man, full of promise and possibility, won’t be coming home.
According to reports, Green was driving westbound on the Terry Bradshaw Passway (SH 3132) near W. 70th Street just after 4:20 a.m. when his truck veered off the roadway. The vehicle reportedly flipped several times before striking a tree. Green was ejected during the crash and was pronounced dead at the scene by responding officers.
At this hour, the road is typically quiet, the early‑morning air still and pre‑dawn dark. In those fragile moments before sunrise, Green’s journey met a tragic end—an abrupt interruption of what was likely another day of hopes, plans and dreams.
The crash remains under active investigation by the Shreveport Police Department. Investigators are working to determine how the truck left the roadway, what caused it to depart and whether factors like speed, fatigue or impairment played a role. Officials have ordered toxicology tests to check for any substances that might have contributed to the crash.
Friends and family now face an unthinkable void. A life cut short under circumstances that offer little solace. In the wake of Green’s passing, his loved ones are left with memories, unanswered questions and the weight of mourning amidst sudden loss.
Green’s death is not only personally devastating to those who knew and loved him—it also serves as a stark reminder of how fragile life can be and how quickly everything can change behind the wheel. One moment, a quiet early Sunday; the next, tragedy.
As the investigation continues, the community of Shreveport holds its breath, hoping for clarity, seeking comfort, and honoring the memory of a young man whose story ended far sooner than any of us expected.
