Columbia Woman Arrested in Tennessee for November 2025 Fatal Motorcycle Crash
A 30-year-old woman from Columbia was taken into custody in Tennessee on Thursday following a warrant issued for her involvement in a fatal motorcycle crash in Columbia in November 2025.
Kyshonda 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 in the incident, died at a local hospital after sustaining injuries from the collision, per previous reports.
On November 2, 2025, Williams was driving an unregistered 2019 Dodge Charger south on Range Line Street at Rain Forest Parkway. Witnesses reported that the traffic signals were green for both north and southbound traffic, with the southbound left-turn lane displaying a flashing yellow light.
During her left turn onto Kennesaw Ridge Road, Williams collided with Cash’s motorcycle. According to a probable cause statement, the victim attempted to avoid the collision and locked the brakes, but was unable to prevent the incident. Williams drove over Cash and the motorcycle with the rear passenger tire.
The investigation into the crash is ongoing, authorities said.
