Borger, Texas Man Killed in Head-On Accident
In the weeks and months following a fatal car crash, the friends and family of the deceased are plunged into a swift current of action. There are immediate choices to be made in regard to organ donation, final arrangements and notifying extended family. Then comes the rush to provide the support and care needed for the victim’s immediate family as they struggle to adjust to the new household structure and sudden loss of income. A fatal auto accident can have ramifications for those left behind that last for many years, and can result in serious financial hardship.
One Texas family is currently at the onset of the process of coming to terms with such a loss. A recent car crash has left a 30-year-old man dead and sent the driver of a commercial truck to the hospital. Investigators are still trying to piece together how the commercial truck and a GMC pickup collided head-on just south of Garden City, Texas.
The collision left both trucks engulfed in flames, which eventually destroyed both vehicles. The driver of the commercial truck was pulled from the wreckage by witnesses. The driver of the pickup truck died at the scene of the crash.

Texas authorities are working to determine the exact cause of the fatal auto accident, and a report will be generated detailing the events that led to the crash. For the family of the man killed in the incident, this is a time of great stress and emotional turmoil. Should the investigation conclude that negligence on the part of the commercial truck driver contributed to this incident, the family may choose to move forward with a wrongful death suit in the matter.
