Two Crashes on I-45 in Dallas Cause Death and Injuries

No good deed goes unpunished!

A group of motorcycles were traveling at a fast speed on I-45 on Thursday night.  One rider crashed his motorcycle.  Other motorcycles, in a effort to help the injured rider, begin traveling southbound on the northbound lanes of I-45.  Many cars traveling north on I-45 had to pull over on the side of the road to avoid hitting the motorcycles traveling the wrong direction.

A driver of a 18 wheeler truck called 911 to get help.  As he tried to pull his truck off the side of the road, a Buick Regal with three passengers crashed into the the 18 wheeler.  Two occupants of the vehicle, Jonnatha Hamilton and Derrick Finch were killed instantly.  The surivivor in the car and the person involved in the motorcycle accident were taken to Baylor University Medical Center.  Both are listed in criticial condition.

The driver of the 18 wheeler had his wife with him.  His wife, Nomi Marquez, said her husband was trying to move the motorcycle and both of them heard tires from a car.

According to the Dallas County Sheriff, the multiple motorcycle riders traveling in the wrong direction left the scene and were not interviewed by officers.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families involved in this tragic situation.
