Justin, TX (May 27, 2020) — A crash at a highway intersection in north Fort Worth left a teenager dead on Tuesday night. The accident occurred around 9:00 p.m. at the intersection of Texas 114 and Farm to Market Road 156.
According to Fort Worth Police, a red truck was passing another vehicle when the lanes expanded from two to three on Texas 114. The red truck then hit a gray car, killing the 19-year-old driver.
