Boy, 6, is killed in car crash as his three brothers fight for their lives in hospital
A six-year-old Texas boy was tragically killed and his three brothers critically injured when the UTV they were riding in flipped and tossed them all from the vehicle. Raul Chavez was riding in the Polaris UTV in Gainesville on July 13 with his siblings, aged between 6 and 13-years-old, when it lost control and rolled over. All four young boys were ejected in the devastating crash. 'It turned on one side, and my baby fell to the side,' Juarez told WFAA. 'It fell on him.' Raul tragically died from his injuries, according to Gainesville Police. He had no heartbeat by the time they reached the hospital, his mother, Ana Juarez, told the outlet. His 9-year-old brother was treated at Fort Worth hospital for pelvic fractures and bruises to his lungs and liver but was released Wednesday. He still has a long recovery ahead. 'We're taking it one day at a time,' his mother said. It's unclear at this time what the condition of the other two boys is. Police have not confirmed who was behind the wheel at the time of the crash. Police also did not announce what caused the vehicle to flip. A GoFundMe was created by a friend and student of Raul's mother, who described the little boy as 'a bright light - joyful, kind, full of curiosity and love.' 'There are no words to describe the depth of this tragedy,' the GoFundMe tribute states. 'His goal was to be a soccer goalie and could not wait to make those dreams come true,' the description continues. 'Their presence brought warmth to everyone around them. Now, their family is left not only grieving a heartbreaking loss but also facing overwhelming emotional and financial burdens.' The fundraiser has reached $7,393 of its $20,000 goal. A candlelight vigil is being held on July 21 in Raul's memory. The accident remains under investigation. 'Raul was more than just a player on the field he was a part of our family,' Ennis Soccer Association said in a July 14 Facebook post. 'A teammate, a brother, a friend. His spirit, kindness, and smile touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.'
