A 70-year-old man died Thursday night after he was ejected from his vehicle during a two-vehicle crash in Richardson.
The crash occurred at approximately 8:50 p.m. on July 30 in the 500 block of East Buckingham Road.
According to the Richardson Police Department, patrol officers responded to reports of a collision involving two vehicles. When officers arrived, they found one of the drivers unconscious on the ground after being ejected from his vehicle during the crash.
The driver was identified as 70-year-old Hagos Wldemical. Richardson Fire Department paramedics transported Wldemical to a local hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
The driver of the second vehicle was not injured.
The Richardson Police Department’s Special Crash Investigation Team responded to the scene and is leading the investigation. According to preliminary findings, Wldemical was driving westbound on East Buckingham Road when a vehicle traveling eastbound attempted to make a left turn into an apartment complex.
Police said the turning vehicle struck the driver’s side of Wldemical’s vehicle, causing it to overturn and eject him from the vehicle. Investigators continue to process evidence and interview witnesses as they work to determine the circumstances surrounding the crash.
No additional information has been released, and the investigation remains ongoing.
