The fatal motorcycle accident occurred just north of downtown at the intersection of IH-10 and Colorado Street, shattering the hearts of family, friends, and everyone who knew him.
Around 3:15 a.m., emergency services responded swiftly to reports of a severe crash.

As investigators work to piece together every detail, questions remain unanswered — but one thing is painfully clear: Ethan’s absence will be felt deeply.
