The fire happened early Thursday morning in the 4200 block of McCart Avenue. Fort Worth Fire officials said crews were called just before 3:00 a.m. and arrived within minutes to find flames coming from the front and sides of the home. Firefighters pulled four people from the house. A school-aged child was confirmed dead, two other children were taken by helicopter to the hospital, and another child was transported by ambulance.

A major wreck was reported on southbound Interstate 35E at Regal Row in Dallas, Texas, around 2:45 p.m. on June 24, 2026. The crash reportedly closed the right lane and right shoulder while crews responded to the scene. Crashes on I-35E near Regal Row can be especially dangerous because this corridor carries heavy Dallas traffic, commercial trucks, delivery vehicles, airport-area traffic, and drivers merging near major exits. When a lane and shoulder are blocked, traffic can slow suddenly and increase the risk of secondary crashes, rear-end collisions, sideswipe impacts, and multi-vehicle wrecks. A serious Dallas freeway crash should be investigated quickly. Key questions may include whether a driver was speeding, distracted, following too closely, making an unsafe lane change, failing to yield, or failing to adjust for traffic conditions. If a commercial vehicle was involved, investigators may need to review driver logs, maintenance records, dash camera footage, company safety policies, and black box data.

An 18-wheeler crash caused traffic delays early Wednesday morning on northbound South U.S. 183 at FM 973 in southeast Travis County, according to KVUE.

A hit-and-run crash involving a pedestrian closed all northbound lanes of Interstate 35E in Corinth on Tuesday morning, according to NBCDFW. The crash happened around 5 a.m. on June 23, 2026, near Corinth Parkway in the 4900 block of I-35E. Corinth police described the incident as an “automobile vs. pedestrian” crash. Emergency services responded to the scene, and law enforcement blocked the interstate while officers conducted their investigation. Traffic was diverted to the nearest exit, and officials warned drivers to expect significant delays. The lanes later reopened around 8 a.m. Pedestrian crashes on major highways like I-35E are often catastrophic. Drivers have a duty to remain at the scene, call for help, and cooperate with investigators after a crash. When a driver leaves after hitting a person, it can delay emergency care, complicate the investigation, and make an already devastating situation even worse. A serious Corinth hit-and-run crash should be investigated quickly. Key evidence may include police reports, 911 calls, witness statements, traffic camera footage, nearby business surveillance video, dash camera footage, vehicle debris, paint transfer, roadway evidence, cell phone records, and information from license plate reader systems. In hit-and-run cases, preserving and locating video evidence early can be critical. Victims and families may still have legal options even when the driver leaves the scene. Depending on the facts, compensation may be available through uninsured motorist coverage, underinsured motorist coverage, personal injury protection, third-party claims, or claims against other responsible parties. If the driver is later identified, that person may face both criminal consequences and civil liability. Hit-and-run pedestrian cases can involve serious injuries, permanent impairment, traumatic brain injuries, spinal injuries, broken bones, internal injuries, or wrongful death. Families may be left with medical bills, funeral expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, mental anguish, and many unanswered questions.
