In the 911 audio obtained by TMZ Sports, the woman can be heard frantically saying, “I can’t find him!” This call was made shortly after Collins’ motorcycle collided with the woman’s SUV around 10:20 PM in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida.
The woman told the operator, “He hit me from behind,” but she was in a state of panic because she couldn’t locate Collins’ body after the crash. During the call, bystanders can be heard in the background urging her to open the door of her vehicle as they realized Collins was inside.
