Bobbi Lee Reyes says her son spent months working on his motorcycle; it was a hobby that brought him joy.
While Reyes was riding his motorcycle, a black Chrysler 300 crashed into him and drove away, leaving him to die, according to a news release from the Texas Department of Public Safety.
Witnesses of the crash also stayed by Reyes’ side until first responders arrived.
Reyes’ family said they want answers and are asking anyone who may know who the driver is to speak up.
“Come forward if you know you did it,” Bobbie Lee Reyes said. “You know who you are, and God knows.”
DPS is seeking information regarding the whereabouts of the Chrysler and the driver of the Chrysler. Troopers say the vehicle damaged its rear right door and rear right quarter area.
Anyone with information about the deadly crash is asked to call DPS at 956-565-7600.
