A tragic traffic incident on Wednesday, November 20, 2024, resulted in the death of a 15-year-old Vines High School student in Plano. The crash occurred around 7:30 p.m. at the intersection of Roundrock Trail and Landershire Lane when the dirt bike the student was riding collided with the front of a parked truck.
Preliminary investigations suggest that the bike, which lacked a headlamp and was not designed for road use, was a contributing factor in the crash. The rider was transported to a local hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.
The Plano Police Department’s Traffic Unit is continuing to investigate the incident. Due to the victim's age, his identity is being withheld.
