BATON ROUGE (AP) -- Two juveniles died in a crash over the weekend after a drunken driving suspect slammed into the back of their car on the Interstate 10 service road in Baton Rouge. State Police said the crash occurred when a Toyota pickup driving east on the service road hit the back of a car, causing the car to flip several times before landing in a ditch. Two juvenile passengers in the car, Ladarius Favorite of Geismar and Andre Queen of Gonzales, were pronounced dead at local hospitals. The adult driver and passenger of the car suffered minor injuries and were transported to Baton Rouge General Medical Center. Troopers say the driver of the truck, Chris Michael Bourgeois, 56, of Peachtree, Ga., was uninjured. He was arrested on two counts of vehicular homicide, two counts of vehicular negligent injuring and one count of first-offense DWI and reckless operation. Â
