    1 dead as car hits bike, sets off chain reaction

    By JASON TRAHAN / The Dallas Morning News

    Police were looking for a black Mercedes convertible that investigators
    believe clipped a motorcycle on LBJ Freeway near the High Five interchange
    early Sunday, setting off a chain reaction that ended in the death of a
    woman.

    Tasha Lumpkin, 23, of Dallas, died at Baylor University Medical Center.
    Police said that the 24-year-old man she was riding with was in critical
    condition at Baylor.

    When the car hit their bike, it in turn struck a motorcycle driven by a
    41-year-old man who was in critical condition at Parkland Memorial Hospital.

    Police said the driver of the Mercedes was antagonizing the motorcyclists by
    speeding up and driving erratically before the collision.

    The driver faces charges of failure to stop and render aid. Anyone with
    information can call the police department's vehicle crimes squad at
    214-670-5817.
