San Antonio, TX (November 3, 2021) – A pedestrian accident reported on Tuesday morning took one man’s life. At around 6 a.m., on November 2, emergency crews were notified that their assistance was needed on-site at the scene of an accident on O’Connor Road.

Reports from authorities show that a male pedestrian was traveling on O’Connor Road while wearing a Fred Flintstone costume. As the man entered the area near Interstate 35, he was struck by a vehicle.

The man sustained fatal injuries as a result of the accident and was pronounced deceased at the scene.

At this time, the San Antonio Police Department is investigating to determine the cause of the crash.

We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the man who lost his life in this accident. Our thoughts are with them at this time.

Fatal Pedestrian Accidents in Texas

Each year, more than 700 pedestrians are fatally injured in traffic-related incidents across the state of Texas. These victims are more vulnerable to the impact of motor vehicles during collisions. As a result, they tend to suffer more catastrophic and fatal injuries at a higher rate. We see far too many innocent parties lose their lives in accidents due to drivers who are distracted, impaired, or engaging in otherwise reckless actions while operating their vehicles. Losing a loved one in an accident can have a devastating impact on surviving family members.

If your loved one has lost their life in an accident, you will most likely face towering financial consequences. Covering medical expenses and funeral costs are tasks made even more challenging by the fact that your family may have lost a source of income they have grown to depend on.

Families should never be forced to cover towering financial burdens they face due to the negligence of another driver. If you have lost a loved one in a pedestrian accident, our San Antonio wrongful death attorneys can fight to make sure your family gets justice.
