Aside from the fatality, four other individuals were injured in the collision. Among the injured were a 20-year-old passenger in the Dodge Challenger driven by Holmes, as well as two adults and a 10-year-old boy in a Honda Civic.
According to the initial investigation conducted by THP, the Dodge Challenger was travelling west on East 22nd Avenue when it attempted to overtake another vehicle in a no-passing zone. The vehicle then collided with the oncoming Honda Civic travelling east.
