The Loss of Jared Snell

Saturday, August 10, 2019

Dear Members, Families and Neighbors,

It is with deepest sorrow that the Atascocita Fire Department reports the death of one of our firefighters; Lieutenant Jared Snell.  Lieutenant Snell has been a member of the Atascocita Fire Department since April of 2017 and was a member of the Baytown Fire Department prior to moving to Atascocita.

Lieutenant Snell was driving home last night, on State Highway 105 about ten miles East of Cleveland, TX when, at around 8:00pm, he was involved in a head-on collision with an 18-wheeler truck. Jared Snell died in the accident.

Our hearts are broken, and our thoughts and prayers are with Jared Snell’s family.  Details regarding funeral arrangements for Jared will be provided as they become available.

In sadness and sympathy,
