Details: Sixteen year old T.J. Ainsworth was at a lake with friends in Canton, Texas, on the night of June 2, 2008. At around midnight, he and his friends left and they dropped him off at a nearby Wal-Mart. Somewhere between 1:15 and 2am, he was struck by an unidentified vehicle. A motorist soon found him severely injured but conscious, saying, "Why did they do this to me?" and "Don't let them hurt me anymore." He died shortly after being taken to the hospital. Authorities believe that he was most likely struck by an 18-wheeler, but his family wants anyone with any information to come forward to explain what happened to him.
