MARTIN COUNTY, Texas — One person was killed in Martin County after a crash occurred on November 12.
58-year-old Hilario Juarez was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash.
The initial investigation revealed that a 2003 Freightliner with a trailer was traveling north on CR D3400 and approaching the intersection of SH 176, while a 1997 Ford F-350, driven by Juarez, was traveling west on SH 176.
The Freightliner failed to yield the right of way at the stop sign, which led to a collision with Juarez.
Juarez immediately succumbed to his injuries after the crash, while the driver of the Freightliner was not injured.
