Jet Ski Driver Flees After Allegedly Killing 18-Year-Old Basketball Star in Texas

Ava Moore, 18, was killed in Texas after being struck by a jet ski while kayaking on Grapevine Lake on May 25. The jet ski operator fled the scene with an adult male, abandoning their car after crashing into another vehicle. Moore, a standout athlete and student who recently completed her first year at the Air Force Preparatory School, was pulled from the water by witnesses and later died at the hospital. Authorities are investigating both the water fatality and the automotive hit‑and‑run, and have released a photo of the suspected operator, Yahoo News has reported. A GoFundMe has raised over $11,500 toward Moore’s funeral costs.
