Tributes from family and friends have poured in for a Nigerian, Patrick Ohanta, 45, who was hit and killed by a car driven by a drunk driver while standing by the side of a kerb in Pineville, Louisiana. According to friends who knew him, Patrick Ohanta popularly called “Pato” had arrive America only 6 weeks ago. He was an alumnus of the University of Ibadan and a keen footballer.

He was booked into RPSO Jail and charged with driving while intoxicated – 4th offense, operating a vehicle while under suspension, reckless operation of a vehicle, and vehicular homicide. A GoFundMe to support Patrick’s wife and family for the funeral has been opened. APD is looking for witnesses who may have information about this incident.
