〽️Dallas - A family is heartbroken today after a devastating crash in Uptown took the life of 29-year-old Dallas attorney Emma Hackney and left two others critically injured — including the suspected drunk driver's own mother.

According to police, 26-year-old Preston Petty was speeding down Cedar Springs Road in a 2025 Tesla when he lost control, slammed into trees, hit a median, went airborne, and landed on top of a Porsche stopped at a red light on Turtle Creek Blvd.

The Porsche flipped instantly. Emma Hackney died at the scene. Her passenger and Petty’s mother were both critically injured.

Witnesses told investigators Petty was flying down the roadway before the impact. Officers reported the smell of alcohol, and Petty allegedly admitted he had been driving with his phone in his hand and argued with his mother who tried to take it away.

Police recovered a thumb drive from the Tesla, which may reveal the exact speed and driving data at the time of the crash.

Petty now faces - Intoxication Manslaughter and Intoxication Assault Causing Serious Bodily Injury.

Emma’s law firm, Jackson Walker LLP, released a statement calling her “a beloved young colleague with a really bright future.”

〽️Fort Worth, Texas - Fort Worth police are investigating a deadly shooting that unfolded early Sunday morning in the parking lot of Flips Patio Grill off Fossil Bluff — and the details are chilling.

Around 2:38 a.m., officers rushed to the 6600 block of Fossil Bluff after reports of gunfire. When they arrived, they found a man suffering from a serious gunshot wound. He was rushed to the hospital in critical condition… but tragically, he did not survive.

Detectives say this was no random shooting. Preliminary findings reveal the victim was getting into a car when two suspects walked directly in front of the vehicle and opened fire — multiple times.

After the attack, both suspects ran off on foot, and police are now working urgently to track them down.

The Tarrant County Medical Examiner will release the victim’s identity once the family is notified.

Dallas Community Mourns Uber Driver Killed in Deadly Parkway Ambush‼️

〽️DALLAS — The body of Frederick Kiprono, a beloved Uber driver and hardworking Dallas resident, is now at a local funeral home, preparing for its journey back to his home country of Kenya. Before he’s flown home, friends and family are coming together to honor his life with a memorial service here in Dallas — a final goodbye for a man who touched so many.

Kiprono was tragically killed on Nov. 21 during a shooting on Clyde Fant Memorial Parkway in Shreveport. Someone opened fire from another vehicle while Kiprono was simply doing his job, driving passengers to their destination.

One passenger, 18-year-old Tatum Ashley, also lost her life in the attack, and a third person in the car was left critically injured.

Shreveport police have since arrested 17-year-old Travelia Loston and 18-year-old Joshua Thomas in connection with the deadly shooting. But a third suspect, Dennis Scott, is still on the run — and officials warn he should be considered armed and dangerous.

A hardworking man, a young woman with her whole life ahead of her, and another victim still fighting to survive — all taken or harmed in a senseless act of violence.

Keep Frederick’s family, Tatum’s family, and the surviving victim in your prayers.
