One Killed and Several Injured in Harris County Two-Vehicle Crash on Highway 290; Andrew Mock Arrested

Harris County, Texas (February 22, 2021) – According to deputies, one person was killed, and several others were injured Sunday night in a DUI crash in Harris County.

The fatal crash happened just before 10:00 p.m., February 21, on Highway 290 near West Little York.

Deputies said a yellow Chevrolet Camaro was traveling at a high rate of speed when it crashed into a Chevrolet Malibu at an underground car meet.

The force of the impact sent the Malibu into onlookers.

A man was killed in the crash. His name has not been released. Two teenage boys were airlifted to the hospital with serious injuries. 

Another person was taken to the hospital by ambulance.

At least five other people were treated at the scene for their injuries.

The Camaro driver, Andrew Mock, was arrested and taken into custody. He is facing one count of manslaughter and two counts of assault by reckless driving. The charges could change if the two teens taken to the hospital do not survive their injuries.

The crash remains under investigation.

“When a person has suffered a grave personal injury in an accident due to someone else’s negligence, the most overwhelming emotion they feel is a sense of injustice. They often ask how such a life-altering event could have happened to them,” attorney Joel A. Gordon said. “The next question usually is, who can help me?” Mr. Gordon added.

A legal advocate can represent an injury victim or the family of a deceased victim. The attorney will file a claim on behalf of the victim and will have the responsibility of citing existing codes, laws, or statutes which were violated.
