71-Year-Old Bruce Rische Killed in Multi-Vehicle Collision on Highway 27 [Kerrville, TX]

Kerrville, TX (July 21, 2023) – On Thursday, 71-year-old Bruce Rische died and three others were injured in a multi-vehicle collision on Highway 27.

The traffic accident took place minutes past 11 a.m. in the 2600 block area.

Investigating officers said a Chevrolet pickup truck turned left onto Junction Highway from Blue Ridge Road and collided with a westbound Toyota Corolla in the inside lane.

A Ford transit van behind the Toyota changed lanes to try and avoid the collision but it also struck the Chevrolet pickup. Apparently, a spare tire got loose from the Chevrolet truck and struck a fourth vehicle that was stopped on Blue Ridge Road.

The Toyota Corolla driver, Bruce Rische, succumbed to his injuries at the scene while the three other drivers involved in the collision sustained minor injuries and were transported to the hospital.

Authorities are still investigating the cause of the Kerrville fatal vehicle collision.

Losing Someone Dear in a Road Accident

It is normal for someone to feel devastated when an unexpected tragedy like this one happened. That is why it is important to know that if we lost a dear one in an accident, we may recover damages through a wrongful death suit.

A wrongful death suit allows families to hold parties liable for the irrevocable damages they have caused. It is a civil action brought forth by relatives of a deceased victim whose death was caused by another person’s negligence.

One of its benefits is that it alleviates most or all of the financial burden the death of a relative has generated.

Meanwhile, are you aware that nearly 1.25 million people die in traffic accidents every year?

That means, on average, road accidents cause 3,287 fatalities per day. With such figures, road accidents are the leading cause of death in the U.S. for people aged 1-54.
