According to the Midland Police Department, officers responded around 9:22 p.m. to the 500 block of East Stokes Avenue after a single-vehicle rollover crash involving a 2022 Ford Bronco.

A Texas wrongful death lawyer can review whether roadway design, lighting, unsafe roadside hazards, vehicle defects, tire failure, speed, distraction, impaired driving, or another preventable factor contributed to the crash. Crash evidence can disappear quickly. Black box data, vehicle damage, roadway measurements, crash scene photos, surveillance footage, dashcam video, witness statements, police reports, medical records, and crash reconstruction evidence may all be critical to determining what happened and who may be responsible. If your loved one was killed in a Midland rollover accident, East Stokes Avenue crash, or Texas wrongful death case involving a single-vehicle wreck, your family may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for funeral expenses, medical bills, lost financial support, mental anguish, and loss of companionship.
