Riley Gilmore Obituary, Death – On a Sunday evening that would forever change the course of events, the road conditions took a turn for the worse as precipitation, falling temperatures and diminished visibility caused a dangerous environment. Unfortunately, this weather-induced turmoil resulted in several incidents, one of which resulted in the death of Riley Douglas Gilmore, who had just a few days left before he would have turned 32 years old.
During an interview with the Abilene Reporter-News, Chief Christopher Selander of the Tye Police Department revealed the identity of the person who was killed. At approximately 5:40 p.m. on Sunday, the crew arrived at the scene of the accident, where the situation was significantly impacted by the slippery road conditions. After further investigation, it was discovered that Gilmore had lost control of his vehicle on the highway, most likely because he was driving too quickly for the hazardous conditions.
Gilmore’s vehicle rolled and flipped after the collision, and it eventually came to rest on the shoulder of the highway opposite exit 279 on Business 20. The aftermath of the collision was severe. Gilmore was discovered to be stuck inside, even though Chief Selander’s staff responded quickly to the situation. The jaws of life were utilized in an attempt to cut open the roof of the truck; however, unfortunately, Gilmore had already passed away as a result of his injuries.
As the community mourns the loss of Riley Douglas Gilmore, let us remember him for the vivacious energy that he brought into the world. He deserves to be laid to rest in peace, and may his memory serve as a powerful reminder of the significance of exercising caution when confronted with poor weather circumstances.
