Killeen, TX – Dade Michael Neujahr Killed in Two-Car Accident on TX-195

Killeen, TX (August 15, 2020) – Just before 7 p.m., on August 12, the Killeen Police Department responded to the site of a collision on Texas State Highway 195.

Reports provided by local authorities show that 23-year-old Dade Michael Neujahr was traveling south in a Toyota Corolla, with two others, on Texas State Highway 195. The driver of the Chevrolet attempted to make a turn onto Chaparral Road when the vehicle was struck by a Chevrolet Malibu, which was traveling north along the same road. The impact of the collision caused the Toyota to spin out onto a grassy area and rollover.

Neujahr and the two other occupants of the Toyota, as well as the driver of the Malibu, were rushed to Taylor Scott & White Medical Center. Neujahr succumbed to his injuries approximately one hour later. At this time, the cause of the collision remains under investigation.

We would like to offer our condolences to the family of Dade Michael Neujahr at this time.
