In a tragic turn of events, the Dallas comedian Henry Cruz was killed in a hit-and-run accident on August 24. The incident occurred in North Texas, near Elm Street and the I-345 ramp, between downtown and Deep Ellum, just after 2 a.m.
According to reports, a car came off the exit ramp going extremely fast and veered towards Noah Robertson and Cruz. Unfortunately, Cruz was hit by the car during the accident, and the driver failed to stop and identify themselves. The driver involved in the fatal accident has not been identified as of yet.
Cruz was known for his joyful personality and his ability to make people laugh. His friends, including Robertson, have been mourning his loss ever since. Angel Hernandez, another friend of Cruz, has been particularly affected, crying for him every day since his death.
In an effort to support Cruz's family during this difficult time, Noah Robertson organized a tribute event for Cruz at Shark's Comedy Club. Ten percent of Saturday's sales at the club will be donated to Cruz's family.
Additionally, a GoFundMe page has been set up to raise funds for Cruz's family. As of the writing of this article, the page has raised $10,232. Hernandez appeals to the driver to come forward and do the right thing. Police are also urging the driver to turn themselves in.
Despite the ongoing search for the driver, the exact location where the search took place is not specified in the available search results. However, there is hope that the other driver will be identified and brought to justice.
