Taylor Swift fans raise thousands for concert goer killed on way home from show

Jacob Charles Lewis, 20, was reportedly struck by a drunk driver on his way home from a Taylor Swift concert in Houston, Texas

Taylor Swift fans have flooded a fundraiser for a 20-year-old fan who was killed on his way home from the pop star’s concert in Houston, Texas.

Jacob Charles Lewis, 20, was reportedly struck by a suspected drunken driver after his car broke down in the early hours of Saturday morning.

He is understood to have attended Swift’s Eras Tour concert earlier that evening with his sister.

Now, Swift’s fans have taken to the GoFundMe page, with many donating $13 or $113 – a nod to Swift’s lucky number 13 – and quoting the 33-year-old musician’s lyrics.

More than $115,000 has been raised in Mr Lewis’s memory so far.

His sister April Bancroft posted on Twitter thanking fans for their donations.

“I cannot express the overwhelming graтιтude from every Swiftie out there. Thank you thank you thank you. I will get to your messages eventually if I haven’t already, your words have inspired me through my day so much.”
