DeCarerick Kennedy and Faybian Hoisington Killed in Harris County Car Crash on Highway 290

Harris County, Texas (February 24, 2021) – According to authorities, two of the three people who were killed Sunday night in a car crash at an underground car meet in northwest Harris County were brothers.

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

Deputies said hundreds of onlookers were standing along sidewalks on the frontage road as others showed off their vehicles.

A yellow Chevrolet Camaro was traveling at a high rate of speed when it crashed into the back of a Chevrolet Malibu.

The force of the impact sent the Malibu into the crowd of onlookers.

35-year-old Roger Glover, who was visiting from New Jersey, was killed in the crash.

Two brothers, DeCarerick Kennedy, 16, and Faybian Hoisington, 14, were taken to the hospital, where they later died. According to their mother, her sons were heading to their grandmother’s house. A GoFundMe account has been set up to help with the funeral expenses of DeCarerick Kennedy and Faybian Hoisington.

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.

“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.
