According to DPS, their troopers responded to a call of a crash on Interstate 20 seven miles east of Stanton at 9:15 p.m. When troopers arrived on scene they found a crash involving a Chevrolet Sonic and a Ford truck.

The driver of the truck, Jose Orellana of Sherman was transported to the hospital with non-incapacitating injuries.
A preliminary investigation of the crash revealed that Lira was driving east on I-20 as Orellana was driving west. According to DPS, Lira crossed into the westbound lanes and crashed into the truck head on.
Both drivers were wearing seat belts at the time of the crash.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends at this difficult time.
