SAN ANGELO, TX — A tragic high-speed collision resulted in one fatality near the intersection of FM 2105 and Grape Creek Road on Monday night. Jose Rivera, a representative from the Grape Creek Volunteer Fire Department, reported that the incident occurred at 8:46 p.m., involving a dually one-ton pickup truck towing a flatbed trailer loaded with equipment and a small, white compact car.

Upon arrival, paramedics discovered one deceased occupant in the vehicle, while a second occupant was urgently transported to Shannon ER. The driver of the pickup truck fortunately did not suffer any major injuries.
