HALTOM CITY, Texas — The father of a Cashion Marine who died in Afghanistan was killed in a motorcycle accident Tuesday, three days after his son was buried. Billy Stroud of Bedford, Texas, died from injuries he received when his motorcycle was hit from behind by a car driven by a woman suspected of driving drunk, police said Wednesday. He had just bought the motorcycle on Monday, a friend said. Services were held for Stroud’s son, Lance Cpl. Jonathan Stroud, in Cashion on Saturday. The 2007 Cashion High School graduate was killed while on patrol July 30. Billy Stroud, a 56-year-old architectural engineer, died about 2 p.m. at John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth, according to the Tarrant County medical examiner’s office. He died from multiple trauma and being run over by the car. The accident happened about about 10:30 a.m. in the 5800 block of Belknap Street near Denton Highway.

"He had just bought the motorcycle on Monday,” said his friend, Dorothy Kuhlman of North Richland Hills. "He had had motorcycles before, so he was experienced with them. He said he was going out for a ride.”

Tammy Sue Stegall, 50, of Haltom City was arraigned Wednesday on a charge of murder because she has two previous driving-while-intoxicated convictions. She was in the Haltom City jail with bail set at $500,000.

  1. I drop a comment whenever I appreciate a article on a

    Usually it's caused by the sincerness communicated in the post I looked at. And on this article "Unbelievable is all I can say... sad story". I was actually excited enough to post a leave a responsea response :-P I actually do have a couple of questions for you if it's okay.
    Could it be simply me or do a few of the remarks look as if they are written by brain dead people?
