Swifties have banded together to help the family of a man who was killed while on his way home from The Eras Tour.
Taylor Swift‘s US tour took her to the city of Houston last weekend, with fans traveling from all over the state to see her incredible show, including Texas natives Jacob Lewis and his sister April Bancroft.

The pair apparently had an amazing time at the concert, with Bancroft posting a sweet video of her and her brother to Twitter the night of the show. Ch-ch-check it out below:
It looks like they had the best time! Sadly, the night would end in a tragedy…
After the show, the 20-year-old and his sister were driving home when their car stalled around 1:15 Saturday morning. According to local outlet KHOU 11, Lewis got out of the Buick LaCrosse to push it along the shoulder of the road toward and exit so they could call for service. Unfortunately an impaired driver didn’t see them in time to stop — 34-year-old Alan Bryant Hayes slammed his Volkswagen Beetle into the car, crushing Jacob between.
April sustained minor injuries and was okay, but the same couldn’t be said about her brother. According to police, Hayes fled the scene — but not before he pulled Lewis out from under the tire of his car. The victim’s father, Steve Lewis, told the outlet:
Just awful!
A tow truck driver the family is calling “heroic” reportedly followed the would-be hit-and-run driver when he fled the scene and was even able to help cops detain him. Hayes was charged with DWI and failure to stop and render aid. Currently he’s being held at the Harris County Jail and was scheduled to have his first court date Monday.
