Corpus Christi Police Department Senior Officer Antonio Contreras reported that a dump truck traveling north on Old Brownsville collided head-on with an SUV heading in the opposite direction after the SUV skidded on the wet road. The driver and a passenger in the SUV were pronounced dead at the scene, while a child in the backseat sustained critical injuries and was transported to a nearby hospital. The dump truck driver was also hospitalized as a precautionary measure. The accident led to the closure of Old Brownsville Road for several hours as authorities conducted their investigation.
