COLUMBIA, MO — Kyshonda Williams, 30, of Columbia, was arrested Thursday in Tennessee following a November 2025 fatal motorcycle crash at Range Line Street and Rainforest Parkway.
Williams faces charges of second-degree involuntary manslaughter, operating a motor vehicle without the highest degree of care, and failure to yield to an approaching vehicle, according to the Columbia Police Department.
Ethan Cash, the motorcyclist involved, died after being transported to a local hospital for injuries sustained in the incident, as previously reported.
On Nov. 2, 2025, Williams was driving an unregistered 2019 Dodge Charger southbound on Range Line Street, positioned in the left-hand turn lane. Both directions of traffic had green lights, with the left turn lane showing a flashing yellow signal.
During her turn onto Kennesaw Ridge Road, Williams collided with Cash’s motorcycle. Witnesses reported that Cash attempted to brake to avoid the collision, but subsequently fell, and Williams’s vehicle ran over the motorcycle and Cash.
The investigation into the incident is ongoing, authorities confirmed.
