KATY, Harris County, Texas, Nov. 9, 2026 — A 22-year-old woman died on Sunday night, November 8, after she was struck while riding her bicycle on Pitts Road near Clay Road in Katy, according to the Harris County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies responded to the 4100 block of Pitts Road at about 10 p.m. after reports of a crash involving a bicycle. Investigators said the woman, identified as Chinwe Keisha Egbo, was riding southbound when she was hit by a vehicle. She died from her injuries at the scene.
According to the sheriff's office, the driver, identified as 61-year-old Trianna Denise Walker, stopped afterward at a nearby gas station and told an off-duty deputy she believed she had struck something in the road. The deputy went to check the area and found Egbo. When he returned to the gas station, Walker had left and her vehicle remained behind.
Walker was later located and arrested. She faces a charge of failure to stop and render aid.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do cyclists have the same rights to the road as drivers?
Yes. In Texas and most states, bicycles are treated as vehicles under traffic law, and cyclists generally have the same rights and responsibilities as drivers, including the right to use travel lanes.
Are bicycle crashes more likely at intersections?
Many bicycle crashes happen at or near intersections and driveways, where turning or crossing vehicles may fail to see a cyclist, though crashes can also happen on open roadways, as in this case.
What injuries are most common in bicycle crashes?
Cyclists struck by vehicles frequently suffer head, chest and limb injuries, since they have little protection compared to someone inside a car. Injuries can range from minor to fatal depending on speed and impact.
What usually causes bicycle accidents?
Common causes include driver inattention, failure to yield, low visibility at night, and speeding. Investigators review physical evidence and witness accounts to determine the specific cause in each case.
