The Death of Scott Brower:
While driving from Corpus Christi, Texas, to South Padre Island on Oct. 21,
1998, Brower's car was hit by an oncoming vehicle driven by Jose Luis
Flores, who had just left a local bar. The oncoming car had been going the
wrong way on a one-way lane, and had driven over the JFK Bridge before
veering to the wrong side of a barricade separating the northbound and
southbound lanes. Although Brower swerved to avoid an accident, Flores'
vehicle nevertheless struck him head on, killing him on impact. Flores died
one hour later after being taken to the hospital. Flores' blood alcohol
level at the time of his death was 0.13, well over the Texas legal limit. A
woman traveling in Brower's car and a man traveling with Flores were also
injured in the accident but not killed. Brower's brother Doug has built a web site dedicated to Brower's memory.
