Frisco Police Investigate Fatality Crash

FRISCO, TX – Frisco Police are investigating an overnight crash that left one person dead and another hospitalized.  The driver of the vehicle believed to have caused the crash fled the scene, and officers are working to identify that subject.

At around 1215 AM on October 31, 2020, FPD officers responded to a vehicle crash at the intersection of Preston Road and Rolater Road.  The initial investigation showed the driver of a Ford pickup ran a red light while turning south onto Preston from westbound Rolater, subsequently colliding with a black BMW sedan and a silver Kia SUV.  

The rear passenger of the Kia was ejected from the vehicle and later pronounced deceased at the hospital.  The driver of the Kia was transported to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.  The driver of the BMW was treated and released at the scene.
