Suspect Dies After Hit-and-Run Leads to Crash and Pursuit in Fort Worth

FORT WORTH, Texas — A hit-and-run crash Monday afternoon ended in a fatal single-vehicle crash following a brief pursuit by Fort Worth police.

At approximately 4:38 p.m. on March 2, 2026, officers were dispatched to the eastbound lanes of Interstate 30 near Horne Street after a caller reported his vehicle had been struck by another driver who failed to stop. The caller followed the suspect vehicle while contacting police.

Officers later located the suspect vehicle near Camp Bowie Boulevard and attempted a traffic stop. The driver did not yield, leading to a brief pursuit eastbound on Camp Bowie.
