Two-Year-Old Killed in South Austin DWI Crash

A man was killed in a hit-and-run crash early Sunday morning, May 31, 2026, on southbound I-35W near East Ripy Street in Fort Worth. According to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, police said the man had gotten out of his vehicle after a minor crash and was checking the damage when another vehicle struck him. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Police said the suspect vehicle left the scene but was later found at a different location, and the investigation remained ongoing. Freeway crashes can become deadly within seconds when a disabled vehicle or minor wreck leaves someone exposed to fast-moving traffic. Investigators may need to determine whether the striking driver was speeding, distracted, impaired, failed to keep a proper lookout, or had enough time and distance to avoid the man. Evidence such as dashcam footage, traffic cameras, nearby surveillance video, vehicle damage, debris patterns, lighting conditions, 911 calls, witness statements, and event data recorder information may be critical in determining what happened. If you lost a loved one in a Fort Worth freeway crash, I-35W pedestrian accident, or fatal hit-and-run collision, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, mental anguish, lost financial support, and other damages.

A fatal pedestrian crash in Richardson claimed the life of one person on May 25, 2026, after the pedestrian was struck by two vehicles. According to Richardson police, officers received multiple 911 calls around 9:44 p.m. reporting a person walking in the roadway in the 2400 block of the west frontage road of North Central Expressway. While officers were responding, additional callers reported that the pedestrian had been hit by a vehicle. Richardson Fire Department paramedics responded to the scene and pronounced the pedestrian dead. Police said preliminary findings indicate the pedestrian was in the left lane of traffic when they were struck by one vehicle and then struck a second time by another vehicle. Both drivers remained at the scene and are cooperating with investigators. The victim’s identity has not been released pending notification of next of kin, and the Richardson Police Department Special Crash Investigation Team is investigating. Fatal pedestrian crashes require a thorough investigation, especially when a person is struck by multiple vehicles in a roadway. A Texas wrongful death lawyer can review whether driver speed, visibility, roadway lighting, distraction, traffic conditions, pedestrian access, roadway design, or another preventable factor contributed to the collision. Evidence can disappear quickly after a fatal pedestrian accident. Vehicle damage, black box data, dashcam footage, surveillance video, 911 calls, crash scene photos, roadway lighting conditions, witness statements, police reports, medical examiner findings, 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 Richardson pedestrian accident, North Central Expressway frontage road crash, Dallas County fatal pedestrian collision, or Texas wrongful death case involving multiple vehicles, your family may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for funeral expenses, lost financial support, mental anguish, loss of companionship, and other damages.

A Midland teen was killed and four other people were critically injured in an overnight incident reported on June 1, 2026. According to KWTX, authorities were investigating after the incident left one person dead and four others with critical injuries. Early reports indicated that a Midland man was later facing a murder charge after reportedly confessing involvement in the incident. Incidents involving a death and multiple critical injuries can raise serious legal questions for victims and families.

Evidence such as police reports, witness statements, surveillance video, 911 calls, phone records, scene photographs, medical records, and criminal investigation findings may be critical in determining responsibility. If you were injured in a Midland critical incident, violent injury event, or catastrophic injury case, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, mental anguish, impairment, and other damages. If you lost a loved one, your family may also have the right to pursue a wrongful death claim for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, mental anguish, lost financial support, and other damages.
