When she did not text or call him past 2 a.m., Morales said he got worried and went out to look for her. “They said, ‘Well, you know, she’s an adult so young ladies tend to break up with their partners,’” Morales recalled.

He said Monday the department is not aware of any witnesses to the crash.“Deputies did check the immediate area and did not locate anyone,” Sisk said in a written statement, adding that Dallas Fire-Rescue crews who arrived to the location before deputies also did not find a person.
