At least one person was pronounced dead after a fatal two-vehicle collision that took place on West Risinger Road, Tuesday night, according to Fort Worth police.
Last June 10, a vehicular accident was reported at around 4:00 p.m. on West Risinger Road near Nikki Lane. Reports said that a vehicle was attempting to make a left turn onto West Risinger when it failed to yield right of way to an eastbound vehicle, prompting a collision. The first vehicle then crashed into a motorcycle, ejecting its rider who was identified as Richard Jones, 58, of Crowley. He was immediately rushed to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead a few hours later.
No other injuries were reported. The driver of the first vehicle was issued citations, police said.
The investigation is still in progress.

According to the National Highway Traffic Administration (NHTSA), car accidents happen almost every minute of the day, and for every 16 minutes, a car accident occurs that results in death. So that is about 6 million car accidents every year and 90 people dying in car accidents every day in the U.S. alone. Despite the government’s aggressive efforts to keep these cases down, Texas remains the worst state in the country for alcohol-involved car crashes.
