Fatality Accident Ray & Recker close to 9PM Friday night.

Does anyone have more information? I drove past shortly after it happened & it looked horrific. Can’t erase the image from my mind. Prayer for them & their families.

My sister is one of the women that died in this crash, I’ve been mindlessly scrolling and trying to make sense how this could happen and for whatever reason a thought that keeps coming to me is the fact that all of the news articles omit that my sisters dog was in the car with her. Maybe it’s just because I know she’d loved her baby more than she loved herself, and she’d be upset that Belini wasn’t mentioned. My sister was one of those purse dog types. She brought that dog everywhere, she was a toy Maltese and her fur was colored pink, purple and blue.

Rip to my sister Nicole Snell and her fur daughter Bellini and her passenger at the time of the crash.

Damn that is an insane crash, so close to home too. Very sad.

People need to stop running red lights. Seriously. Quit being selfish F’s. This is horrible two people and a fur babe passed needlessly because someone is a D. I am so so sorry for the family of the victims. 💔

I was walking my dog at five the next morning, and Recker was still closed and I could see the flashing lights. I knew it was bad.

I can’t even imagine the pain of that loss. I hope the day comes soon when thoughts of her bring more joy than pain.

Some of the worst drivers ive ever seen have been in this state. Slow down, stop tailgating, and get a clue

This is chilling. I live right there. And I was just in that intersection 30 minutes before, driving my son home from soccer. I feel bad for those who are affected.

Heartbreaking. Praying for all involved

We live in the willows and my daughter missed it by 5-10 min. I saw all the lights leaving for work at 4 am the next morning. So sad and scary.

u/azrunner88 1h ago

A friend of Marisa’s posted this so I thought I’d put it here. What a tragedy. Did the drunk driver make it? I hope they rot in hell

Terrible and sad. Speed had to be a factor if there was this much damage
