PARMER COUNTY, Texas (KVII) \u2014 One person is dead and another was airlifted to Lubbock after a fiery crash between two semis in Parmer County.<\/p>\n
According to the Texas Department of Public Safety, the crash happened on Wednesday at about 9:03 a.m. at State Highway 114 and FM 145, about 10 and a half miles north of Muleshoe.<\/p>\n
The preliminary investigation determined that a 2020 Kenworth truck tractor towing a semi-trailer, driven by Wilnick Saint-Paul, 46, of Naples, Fla., was eastbound on FM 145 and approaching the stop sign at the intersection with SH 214.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, a 2014 Peterbilt truck tractor and semi-trailer, driven by Juan Soliz, 30, of Hereford, was southbound on SH 114 and approaching the intersection of FM 145.<\/p>\n
The Kenworth disregarded the stop sign and hit the Peterbilt on the passenger side. Both semis caught fire and burned.<\/p>\n
Soliz was able to get out of the semi he was driving before it became fully engulfed with flames.<\/p>\n
Saint-Paul was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n
Soliz was taken by Aerocare to the University Medical Center in Lubbock with serious injuries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PARMER COUNTY, Texas (KVII) \u2014 One person is dead and another was airlifted to Lubbock after a fiery…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17065,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[168,170,169],"class_list":["post-17064","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-lubbock","tag-lubbock","tag-lubbock-headlines","tag-lubbock-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17064","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17064"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17064\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17065"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17064"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17064"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17064"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
