Killeen, TX – Motorcyclist Killed in Crash on S TX-195

Killeen, TX (March 6, 2020) – A horrific motor vehicle accident on Tuesday afternoon sadly claimed one victim’s life.

Just before 2:40 p.m., on March 3, authorities were called to the scene of a devastating collision in the 13100 block of South State Highway 195. Investigative reports show that a white Toyota Prius was traveling south along the interstate when a pedestrian ran out into the road.

The driver of the Toyota slowed down when it collided with a black 1999 Harley Davidson motorcycle. The motorcyclist was ejected from his vehicle.

Unfortunately, the motorcyclist, who was later identified as 59-year-old Donald Jay Mires, suffered fatal injuries and was declared deceased.

At this time, the incident remains under investigation.

We would like to extend our sincere condolences to the family of Donald Jay Mires.  Our thoughts and prayers are with them.
