Overview

• Police identified the victim as 19-year-old Landon Graham, a nonverbal autistic teen who died a day after the collision.
• Investigators say he was struck on the 3300 block of West Main Street by a late-model gray Toyota Tundra that left the scene, then by a second vehicle whose driver stayed and cooperated.
• Collins, 62, was arrested Wednesday and charged with collision involving death, and his bond was set at $250,000.
• Court records cite prior arrests for drug possession and driving with a suspended license, while Graham’s family is seeking a higher bond and has launched a GoFundMe for funeral costs.
• Collins’ daughter publicly defended him and urged against judging him by past mistakes, as detectives ask anyone with relevant footage or information to contact Detective Thomas at 281-554-1884.
