What Happened

Texas Department of Public Safety officials are investigating a crash that killed a woman at US 183 near Gonzales, TX on August 26th, 2022. Police say the incident happened around 10:45 a.m. Investigators say a GMC Denali operated by 55-year-old Alma Rodriguez was headed southbound on US 183 approaching the intersection with FM 2067. As it did so, the vehicle was struck by a Mack truck-tractor operated by 23-year-old Nathaniel Blackwell that allegedly failed to yield and turned into the path of a GMC. The impact caused the GMC to overturn into a bar ditch, trapping Rodriguez under the vehicle and causing fatal injuries. Her husband and passenger, 54-year-old Ronney Rodriguez, was hospitalized with serious injuries. Blackwell was reportedly uninjured. Additional information was not yet available.
