Man, Two Teens Killed in Harris County Two-Vehicle Crash on Highway 290

Harris County, Texas (February 24, 2021) – According to deputies, three people were killed, and several others were injured Sunday night in a two-vehicle crash at an underground car meet in northwest 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.

The force of the impact sent the Malibu into hundreds of onlookers who were standing along sidewalks on the frontage road as others showed off their vehicles.

35-year-old Roger Glover was killed in the crash. 

A 16-year-old was taken to the hospital, where they later died. A 14-year-old was also taken to the hospital, where he later died.

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, 22, was arrested and taken into custody. He was charged with two counts of manslaughter and one count of aggravated assault with a serious injury. His bond late Monday was set at $30,000 for each of the two deaths and $20,000 for the assault charge. The charges and bond could increase now that a third death has been confirmed.

The crash remains under investigation.

Common Causes of Automobile Accidents

While there are many causes of car accidents, the most common reasons of driver negligence include driver inattention; cell phone use; texting and driving; speeding; fatigue; failure to yield the right of way from a stop sign or private drive; running a red light; and driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs,” Attorney Joel A. Gordon said. Mr. Gordon believes that an independent investigation is important. An Attorney will help obtain the crash report, secure accident photos, interview witnesses, and create a claim.
