A 22-year-old man from Nixon, Texas, has died from injuries he sustained in a previously reported crash near Port Aransas.
Michael Brown died at 11:35 a.m. on March 20. He had been hospitalized with a serious head injury following the March 14 collision.
Port Aransas police previously reported that a Jeep traveling northbound on Highway 361 collided with a Tesla on Saturday night. The impact ejected Brown, who was a front-seat passenger, from the Jeep.
The Port Aransas Police Department investigated the crash, while the Texas DPS Highway Patrol investigated the driving-while-intoxicated criminal offense. Both agencies have been notified of Brown's death.
A video of the traffic accident went viral on social media, raising safety concerns among residents as spring break visitors flood the island community.
