CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCBD) – Law enforcement gathered along I-26 on Tuesday to pay their respects to a Charleston County deputy who was killed in a crash on Monday.

Deputy Jeremy LaDue was on patrol in the 2400 block of Savannah Highway in West Ashley when a vehicle collided into his patrol car on Monday.

LaDue, 29, and the other motorist, Kwamane Mitchell, were transported to an area hospital with serious injuries. Both later died.
