My name is Janelle Jones. on September 10, 2025 in the early hours around 115am my brother Antonio Ricci was hit by a 26 year old man driving an Ford F-150 in Kennewick WA.He was initially seen at a hospital in Richland Washington where they were able to stabilize him with life saving measures. He was then life flighted to Harborview in Seattle Washington around 830am. There is an on going investigation and we are actively working with law enforcement. I do have an open case going.

Currently my brother in the Trauma ICU. He has C spine injury, most of his ribs are broken. Right arm fracture and degloving, liver lacerations, broken ankle,broken sternum and the list goes on. Today as I write this my brother is in his first surgery to address his arm. Just one of many to come.

We are trying to raise money for medical bills,food ,travel ,gas. We don't live close and travel for myself alone is 2 hours one way. My mom and brothers are an hour away.There are so many unanswered questions we have as I'm sure you do reading this. We have been informed Antonio is looking at a minimum of 6 weeks in ICU based on just 1 of his injuries. While we wait to see what the next assessment is.

We have put our trust in the Lord and know he will provide for not only us to be here to support Antonio but all the steps we've yet to reach in his journey. Anything big or small will help. We thank all the family and friends that have reached out regarding Antonio. I am sharing updates via Facebook when appropriate. Our family thanks to all those who donate. If you can't donate please keep Antonio and our family in your prayers .

Sincerely,

The Ricci and Alvarado Family

Update 9/16/25: Antonio is still intubated. Second arm surgery today. He can't come off sedation as CT showed fractured ribs are moving and will have surgery tomorrow. He has a grade 3 brain injury to the bifrontal and left temporal sides of the brain. Please continue to pray and everything you can donate will be appreciated beyond measure!
