On May 23, 2026, at approximately 11:45 a.m., Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) Troopers responded to a three-vehicle crash on FM-455 near Hub Clark Rd in Denton County.

A preliminary investigation indicated that a motorcycle was traveling eastbound at a high rate of speed, approaching a vehicle that was also traveling eastbound. The motorcyclist braked to avoid a collision with the vehicle, lost control, and laid the motorcycle down, sending it into the westbound lane, where it struck a pickup truck. The impact sent the motorcycle back into the eastbound lane, where it collided with the vehicle.

The driver of the pickup truck was uninjured.

The driver of the vehicle was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The motorcycle rider, a 34-year-old man from Sanger, was pronounced deceased at the scene.

This investigation is ongoing.

The Arlington Police Department is investigating a fatal crash involving multiple vehicles that occurred early Saturday morning on westbound Interstate 30 between Cooper Street and Fielder Road.

On Saturday, May 23, 2026, at approximately 3:45 a.m., officers responded to the westbound lanes of Interstate 30 between Cooper Street and Fielder Road to investigate a major crash involving three vehicles and an 18-wheeler.

Preliminary investigation indicates a vehicle was traveling at a high rate of speed when it struck the a car from behind, causing that vehicle to leave the roadway and collide with an unoccupied vehicle, which was parked on the shoulder of the interstate. Due to the impact, the first vehicle became disabled and came to rest across multiple lanes of traffic.

An 18-wheeler traveling westbound was unable to stop in time and struck the disabled wrecked car, ejecting the passenger.

Both occupants of the car were transported to local hospitals. The passenger was later pronounced deceased. Preliminary investigation suggests intoxication may have been a contributing factor in the crash.
