Dallas community remembers 8-year-old killed in motorcycle crash
Oak Cliff community members are remembering an 8-year-old who was killed in a motorcycle crash this weekend.
Sirayjah Parson, 8, and the driver of the motorcycle died. Another child was critically injured, police said.
Keisha Williams said she will remember Parson as a sweet little girl who loved to dance and was a good friend. Williams coached the girls' cheer team.
"She was a bright, vivid little girl. They always talked, they played," said Williams.
On Monday, a pink sign, a balloon and flowers were posted as a small memorial to the girl. Her friends want her family to know she will be missed.
"Sirayjah was an amazing second grader and she was nice and she was kind. Rest in peace, Sirayjah," said Reign Williams.
Dallas police said the investigation into the Oak Cliff-area crash is ongoing.
