15-Year-Old Boy Pronounced Dead after Car Crash near Bammel North Houston Road

HARRIS COUNTY, TX (December 6, 2023) - Stephaun Fair died Saturday morning in a pursuit crash on Veterans Memorial Drive and Bammel North Houston Road.

Police responded to the scene at approximately 12:43 a.m., after receiving multiple calls in the area.

The driver of a 2016 Chevrolet Malibu, initially spotted speeding near Kuykenhahl and Rankin Road, was first located by the police. When officers attempted to initiate a traffic stop, the driver refused to comply, leading to a pursuit. The chase concluded when the Chevrolet collided with a Toyota Camry at the intersection of Veterans Memorial Drive and Bammel North Houston Road.

This collision caused the Chevy driver to lose control, resulting in a collision with a pickup truck. One of the passengers in the Chevrolet Malibu, identified as 15-year-old Stephaun Fair, lost his life at the scene. Three other occupants from the suspect's vehicle and one individual from another vehicle involved in the crash were hospitalized with unspecified injuries.

Authorities later placed the Chevrolet driver under arrest, booking them into the Harris County Juvenile Detention Center on charges of felony murder and evading in a motor vehicle. An ongoing investigation is actively seeking further details at this time.

In the midst of this difficult situation, the Fair family has initiated a GoFundMe page to assist with funeral expenses.

No words can mend the broken hearts and sorrow felt during this delicate moment. Deepest condolences and sympathies are with the family and friends of Stephaun Fair.
