David Webb Killed, Aaron Dixon Injured in Cleveland Two-Vehicle Crash on State Highway 105

Cleveland, Texas (October 24, 2023) – One person was killed and another was injured Thursday morning in a two-vehicle crash in Cleveland, according to the police.

The fatal crash happened around 8:27 a.m., October 19, on the SH 105 bypass between FM 1010 and US 59.

Police said David Wesley Webb, III, of Silsbee, was driving a passenger vehicle eastbound on the bypass when he entered into the past of an oncoming 18-wheeler, which was carrying coils of rolled steel, resulting in a collision.

The rolls of steel came off the trailer after the crash, requiring crews to reload them onto a second tractor-trailer.

Webb was killed in the crash.

The 18-wheeler driver, Aaron Dixon Jr., 56, of Beaumont, was taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The crash remains under investigation.
