Arthur Lozano from Waco was just 36 years old. On Sunday afternoon he stood on the northbound side of Interstate 35 near Exit 300 in Temple. An 18-wheeler hit him around 12:20 p.m. He died right there on the road.

Temple police got the call and rolled up quick. They found the big truck still sitting at the spot. The driver never left. Officers saw the pedestrian had been out on the highway when the collision happened.

Justice of the Peace Theodore Duffield arrived and pronounced Arthur dead at the scene. No one else got hurt. The traffic reconstruction unit took over the stretch of road. Drivers had to find other ways around while the work went on.

Arthur lived in Waco. That is all the public knows about him so far. Police say the case stays open. They are still piecing together how he ended up walking along that busy stretch of interstate.

The truck stayed put after the hit. That fact stands out. Investigators are looking at every detail from the moment the 18-wheeler and the man met on the pavement.

Folks who knew Arthur now face the sudden hole left behind. A regular Sunday turned into the day his life stopped on a Texas highway. Police ask anyone who saw something to call them or the local crime stoppers line.

The investigation continues with no extra details released yet. Arthur Lozano’s name is now tied to that exit on I-35. The road reopened after the unit finished its work, but the questions remain.

Jamil Wilson died Monday afternoon in a multi-vehicle wreck on the New York State Thruway. The crash hit the westbound lanes near Exit 6 in White Plains. A black SUV ended up on its side next to State Department of Transportation vehicles.

Emergency crews got there fast. They found the scene messy with the overturned SUV and the DOT trucks. Right and center lanes shut down right away. The Exit 6 entrance ramp closed too. Traffic backed up for hours.

All lanes and the ramp opened back up later. Workers cleared the wreckage and got the road moving again. Drivers who passed by saw the mess and slowed way down.

Police have not said what started the crash. The investigation is still going. Some talk floated about a possible link to a DOT worker. That has not been confirmed.

Jamil was just living his life that afternoon. One moment things were normal. The next everything changed for the people who knew him. Family and friends now face a hole that feels too big.

The crash left plenty of questions hanging. How it all lined up remains unclear. Officials keep looking into the details.

Folks who cared about Jamil hold onto the good times they shared. Those memories matter more now. The road reopened but the loss stays with the ones left behind.

Brandon Eich left the Pickens Police Department station Monday like he had so many times before. He was heading home after his shift when a medical emergency hit. He died that same day, October 19, 2026. The news landed hard on his family, his fellow officers, and the folks around Pickens who knew him.

Eich was a husband, a dad, and a grandfather first. Those closest to him talk about the everyday stuff that made him who he was. He showed up for the people in his life. He gave advice when it was needed and shared laughs that stuck with them. His wife, kids, and grandkids now carry those memories while dealing with the empty space he left.

Before he put on the reserve officer uniform in Pickens, Eich worked as a lieutenant with the South Carolina Department of Corrections. That job asked for discipline and steady nerves. Later he built homes for a living and did well at it. Even then, the pull toward law enforcement never left him. He came back to it as a reserve officer because he wanted to keep helping.

Around the department he ran the drone for football games, search warrants, and other tough calls. The view from above helped keep officers safer. He also pushed to get money for body armor and gear for the cars. Those tools mattered on the street. He spent time with the NextGen youth program too, talking to kids who might one day wear a badge.

Not long ago he helped start the Stillwater Law Enforcement Foundation. The idea was simple. Give officers across South Carolina better training. Eich kept looking for ways to make the work better for everyone who did it. His coworkers say the time he spent with them made them better cops and better people.

The Pickens Police Department put out a statement that hit the right note. They said his passion for the job stood out. They asked the community to keep his family in their thoughts. Officers who worked beside him feel the loss in the small ways that add up during a shift. Someone who showed up ready and willing is gone.

Eich’s story stays with the people he helped and the ones he raised. The department closed their message with plain words that fit him. Rest easy, Brandon. We are better because we knew you.

Arthur Lozano never made it home that Sunday. The 36-year-old from Waco was walking on northbound Interstate 35 near Exit 300 in Temple when an 18-wheeler struck him around 12:20 p.m.

Temple police got the call and found the big truck still at the scene. The driver had not left. Officers saw right away that a pedestrian had been hit hard.

Justice of the Peace Theodore Duffield checked Lozano at the roadside and pronounced him dead. No one else got hurt in the crash.

Cops say early signs point to Lozano being out on the highway itself when the truck hit him. The Traffic Reconstruction Unit is still piecing together exactly what happened.

Lozano lived in Waco. Folks who knew him are left with the shock of how fast a regular afternoon turned final. The investigation stays open.

Anyone who saw something that day can call Temple Police at 254-298-5500. Tips also go to Bell County Crime Stoppers at 254-526-8477 or their website. Callers can stay anonymous.

The highway kept moving after the wreck, but for Lozano’s people the road stopped right there.

Wallace Truman Edge, 75, and Pamela Cook, 40, died from gunshot wounds at a house on McNatt Falls Road in Toombs County, Georgia. Deputies got the call around 2:19 p.m. on Monday, October 19. Three people had been shot inside the place at 188 McNatt Falls Road.

Deputies walked in and found Wallace and Pamela already gone. Both took fatal shots. Diane Cook, 55, sat inside with a gunshot wound of her own. Doctors called it non-life-threatening. She made it out alive while the other two did not.

Grace Edge, 76, Wallace’s former wife, drew the focus right away. Officers arrested her and locked her up at the Toombs County Detention Center. She faces two counts of felony murder, two counts of malice murder, and three counts of aggravated assault.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation stepped in to help sort out what went down that afternoon. No one else in the area faces any threat, according to the sheriff’s office. The case now sits with the courts and a first appearance hearing still ahead.

Wallace had lived 75 years full of the usual ups and downs that come with a long life. Pamela was just 40. Both left people behind who now have to figure out the days without them. Diane is healing from her wound and dealing with whatever comes next.

Families in Toombs County are left with the sudden hole this shooting punched in their lives. Two people will not come home. One woman recovers while the legal side moves forward.

Grace Edge remains in custody while investigators keep working the details of that Monday call.

Luqmaan Cusmaan was just 21 when gunfire ended his life on a Monday afternoon in northeast Columbus. Police got calls about shots fired around 2:11 p.m. in the 2200 block of Albert Avenue. Officers rolled up to an apartment complex where a fight involving several people had broken out. It did not stay a fistfight for long.

By the time help arrived, Luqmaan was down with what looked like a gunshot wound. Medics and officers worked on him, but he was pronounced dead at the scene at 2:19 p.m. Just eight minutes after the first calls came in. A second person was also hurt. Police have not said how bad that injury is.

Sgt. James Fuqua called the whole thing senseless and unnecessary. Plenty of shots rang out. The scene turned chaotic fast. Investigators are still piecing together what started the fight and why someone pulled a gun. No one has been arrested yet. Police say the person or people who did the shooting might still be armed and dangerous.

Luqmaan’s family and friends are left with a sudden hole. At 21, most folks are figuring out jobs, relationships, and what comes next. His future stopped on that stretch of Albert Avenue. The people who knew him now face empty chairs and unanswered questions.

The shooting happened right near a mosque where a funeral was going on. Police made it clear the funeral had nothing to do with the gunfire. No one inside the mosque got hurt. The building took no damage. It was not targeted. Still, folks leaving the service walked into the mess outside.

Emotions ran high after the shots. Family members, friends of Luqmaan, and people from the funeral mixed near the media. There was shouting, screaming, and some shoving. Officers had to step in and calm things down. No arrests came from that scuffle either.

Gaston Hernandez has lived in the neighborhood more than ten years. He works as a mechanic nearby. He said he never saw anything like this before. People need to settle beefs without guns, he told reporters. Khalid Turaani from the Council on American-Islamic Relations of Ohio said the community is tight. Healing will take time.

Anyone who saw what happened is asked to call Columbus police. The investigation continues. Luqmaan Cusmaan’s name is now on a growing list of young people lost to gunfire in the city. His loved ones are left to carry the weight.

Sasha Hart and her husband David left Fairbanks early Monday with their toddler. They never made it home. Around 9 a.m. Sasha was driving their Subaru Forester south on the Parks Highway near Trapper Creek when the car crossed the center line right by the Three Bears gas station. It slammed head-on into a northbound Ford F-250.

Both Sasha, 38, and David, 41, died at the scene. Troopers said the impact was severe. Their young child was in the vehicle too and lived. The injuries were not life-threatening. Medics flew the toddler to an Anchorage hospital where family members were waiting.

The crash shut down the Parks Highway in both directions near Milepost 115. Crews worked the scene for hours. A detour kept traffic moving. The road opened again around 3 p.m.

Sasha and David were a married couple from Fairbanks traveling together that morning. Their deaths leave a hole that relatives now have to face every day. The toddler is recovering, but the parents are gone.

Friends and family of the Harts are dealing with sudden loss. Two people who shared a life are no longer here. The child who rode with them will grow up without them.

Investigators are still looking into exactly why the Subaru crossed the line. No other details have been released yet. The Ford driver was not named in the first reports.

For the Hart family the days ahead mean hospital visits, arrangements, and trying to hold onto memories of Sasha and David while caring for their surviving child.

Roman McClain was just 21 when gunfire cut his life short late Saturday night in Eastvale. Deputies found him and six others with gunshot wounds in a residential backyard on the 7000 block of Morning Hills Drive. He died right there at the scene. The other six got rushed to nearby hospitals.

It happened around 11:13 p.m. on October 17. Calls came in about unknown trouble and a possible shooting. Jurupa Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies rolled up and saw the mess. One young man from Victorville was gone. Six more were fighting for their lives with those traumatic injuries.

Roman lived in Victorville. At that age most folks still chase plans and next steps. His death hit hard for anyone who knew him. Sudden loss like this leaves family and friends with empty spots and hard questions that stick around.

The Riverside County Sheriff’s Coroner confirmed it was Roman McClain. He was pronounced dead in that backyard. No word yet on the conditions of the six who made it to the hospital. Each one carries their own story from that night.

Central Homicide Unit detectives took over the case right away. They are still piecing together what led to the shots. No arrests so far. No public motive either. The department says the investigation stays open and they will not put out more details right now.

Anyone who saw or heard something can call Central Homicide Unit Lead Investigator Newby at (951) 955-2777. Or try Jurupa Valley Sheriff’s Station Master Investigator Ramirez at (951) 955-2600. Every tip counts while they work this.

The quiet neighborhood near Eleanor Roosevelt High School turned into a crime scene in minutes. Roman’s name is the one we know. Six others are healing somewhere. The answers about that Saturday night are still out there waiting to surface.

Joseph Griffieth died Monday evening after two vehicles slammed into each other near Troy Sidney Road and River Road. The crash happened around 7 p.m. in Shelby County. Both cars ended up in the grass. One flipped onto its side.

Four kids sat in those vehicles. Their ages stretched from babies still in car seats to 10-year-olds. All of them walked away with only minor injuries. Three adults took harder hits. They left the scene with head trauma and needed hospital care.

Deputies closed roads for about a mile around the intersection. Crews worked under the lights while people gathered on the edges. The grass held the wrecked cars until tow trucks pulled them free.

Joseph Griffieth did not make it. His name now sits at the center of a quiet investigation. Family and friends face an empty space that opened without any warning on a regular Monday night.

The kids will remember the noise and the sudden stop. Their bodies healed fast. The memory of that moment may stick longer. Adults who survived carry their own weight from the head injuries.

Investigators keep looking at what led to the collision. No final answers have come yet. The roads reopened after the debris cleared. Life in the area moved on, but not for everyone connected to Joseph.

People who knew him now sort through the ordinary hours that came before the crash. A drive that should have ended at home stopped short instead.

Barry L. Cox died on a quiet stretch of Cranal Road in Winston County, Alabama. He was 64. The crash happened around 11:05 a.m. on October 20, 2026. His GMC Canyon left the road, flipped, and hit a tree about eight miles north of Double Springs near Sipsey Fork Road.

Troopers said Cox was not wearing a seat belt. The force threw him out of the truck. He was pronounced dead right there at the scene. Investigators are still looking into what caused the vehicle to leave the roadway.

People who knew Barry remember a man who had lived a full 64 years. He drove those back roads like so many folks in Winston County do every day. One ordinary morning turned into something no one saw coming.

The pickup ended up against a tree after it overturned. Without the seat belt holding him in place, Barry had no chance once the vehicle went over. Alabama state troopers confirmed the details and continue their work on the case.

Family and friends now face the sudden hole left behind. Ordinary days on the road can end this way in a blink. Barry’s truck was a familiar sight around those parts until that morning.

The crash site sits in a rural spot north of Double Springs. Emergency crews arrived but could do nothing more. Barry was already gone when they got there.

Those closest to him will carry the memories of the years he spent among them. The investigation may turn up more facts, but the loss is already real for everyone who cared about Barry L. Cox.
