Bush Man Dies After Leaping From Vehicle in Franklinton

On Sunday, June 10, 2018, officers with the Franklinton Police Department responded to the intersection of Main and Washington Streets and found Brett Randall of Bush, unresponsive  and lying on the side of the road. Randall was transported to Riverside Medical Center where he was pronounced deceased by the Coroner's office.
After reviewing video evidence and witness statements, FPD investigators determined that Brett Randall was a passenger in a vehicle being driven by his uncle, Cade Randall. Following a verbal confrontation, Brett Randall became irate and got out of the vehicle in a near-by parking lot. Brett Randall eventually got back into the vehicle and he and his uncle headed home. However, as the vehicle approached the intersection of Main and Washington Streets, Brett Randall opened the passenger side door and leaped from the moving vehicle. Due to the previous altercation and low rate of speed, Cade Randall did not stop and proceeded home.
At this time, no charges have been filed against Cade Randall. Toxicology reports indicate that Brett Randall had an elevated amount of amphetamines in his system at the time of his death.
