Dorothy Weaver ID’d as Woman Killed in Liberty County Crash on State Highway 105 near Moss Hill

Liberty County, Texas (June 18, 2022) – Authorities have identified the woman who died following a Thursday evening car crash in Liberty County as Dorothy “Christy” Guedry Weaver, 47.

The collision, involving three vehicles, happened at about 4:20 p.m. Thursday, June 16, on State Highway 105, just east of Moss Hill, approximately one mile from the Liberty-Hardin county line.

According to the authorities, David Dobson, 29, of Humble, Texas, was driving a Walmart tractor-trailer westbound on State Highway 105 when, for an unknown reason, the tractor-trailer collided head-on with a 2018 Chevy Silverado that was traveling eastbound, driven by Brian Gallander, 58, of Batson.

The Silverado then veered into the westbound lane, where it hit the tractor-trailer on its driver’s side. After the impact, the tractor-trailer jackknifed and traveled across both lanes.

The tractor-trailer ultimately collided with a 2011 Toyota Tundra that was heading eastbound on State Highway 105, driven by Weaver.

Weaver, a Batson resident, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Gallander was airlifted to a Houston-area trauma center in serious but stable condition. Dobson was transported by ground ambulance to Liberty-Dayton Regional Medical Center with minor injuries.

Authorities said Gallander may face criminal charges.

The crash remains under investigation.
