Grand Prairie, TX — August 10, 2024, two adults and two children were killed while one child was injured in a car accident at 8:00 p.m. along Belt Line Road.
According to authorities, two adults and three children were traveling in a Chevrolet Traverse in the vicinity of South Belt Line Road and Marshall Drive when the accident took place.
A Dodge Charger which had allegedly been involved in a street race with a separate vehicle reportedly collided with the Traverse; the impact caused the SUV to burst into flames. The two adults and two of the children did not survive the ordeal. The third child was critically injured, according to reports, and was transported to a local medical facility by EMS in order to receive immediate treatment.
Reports state that the 20-year-old man who had been behind the wheel of the Charger and the 22-year-old behind the wheel of the car he was racing have been arrested; authorities apparently recommend charges of manslaughter, highway racing, and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Additional details pertaining to this incident are not available at this point in time. The investigation is currently ongoing.
