Detectives still investigating woman’s death

Detectives from the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff’s Office are still investigating the death of 45-year-old Lori Ann Ezell.

Ezell’s body was found underneath the Dularge Overpass, near Bayou Dularge Road, at 7:26 a.m., last Wednesday morning. Through further investigations, witnesses reported seeing Ezell on the bridge earlier that morning.

According to police, one motorist saw Ezell waling across the overpass at approximately 6:21 a.m., a time that the bridge was open for boat traffic. The bridge reopened for vehicular traffic at 6:26 a.m., and the motorist reportedly, again saw Ezell walking on the bridge.

However, reports say that a motorist crossing the overpass at 6:30 a.m. did not see anyone walking on the bridge at that time.

Earlier in the morning, at approximately 6:10 a.m., Ezell was seen walking along La. 661, near the Houma Navigational Bridge.

Ezell was found wearing a scrub uniform that included the colors blue, pink, green and white with flowers.

It is still unknown how Ezell could have fallen from the bridge.
