UPDATE (April 14, 2023): Authorities identified the man killed in the accident as 36-year-old Darion “DJ” Rodriguez. Right now, the search for the driver involved in the accident continues. No further information is available at this time.
Current reports also mention that DJ Rodriguez was related to another man killed in Galveston County, identified as George Arness. Both incidents are still under investigation, and I can only hope witnesses continue to come forward to help ensure the families of the victims get proper answers. Such unbelievable tragedy can’t be written off as unfortunate accidents. They need an explanation, and the sooner they get those answers, the better.
Texas City, TX — April 9, 2023, one person was killed as the result of an accident on FM 1764 after which a driver fled the scene.
Authorities said that the incident happened at around 3:30 a.m. along FM 1764 in the area of Highway 3. Details suggest that a bicyclist was going along the roadway when a vehicle hit them. That vehicle then apparently fled the scene. The bicyclist died as a result of the collision. Investigations are ongoing.

It’s unfortunate there isn’t more information about what happened here or who’s responsible. But that doesn’t mean there’s no hope. More often than not, these situations resolve because someone in the public is able to help authorities identify the driver. The same could very well prove true here, too. It will simply take continued vigilance until more information comes to light.
