Jason Sanchez Killed in Seguin Five-Vehicle Crash on Interstate 10 

Seguin, Texas (August 28, 2021) – Three people were killed, and five others were injured Thursday afternoon in a fiery multi-vehicle crash in Seguin, according to the Seguin Police Department.

The fatal crash happened just before 3:00 p.m., on August 26, on Interstate 10 near the State Highway 123 Bypass.

Police said a semi-truck was traveling eastbound on the interstate and was transporting meat products when it was cut off by vehicles that were trying to avoid TxDOT workers in the area. The driver braked abruptly to avoid a collision, causing the truck to lose its load on the roadway.

The meat products caused the road to get slick, and another semi-truck swerved to avoid a crash, but it crashed into a guardrail and caught fire, causing a chain-reaction crash involving four vehicles.

Jason A. Howell, 48, of San Antonio, Jason N. Sanchez, 36, of San Antonio, and Joseph D. Cline, 37, of Marion, were killed in the crash.

A responding Seguin police officer sustained injuries as he was saving the crash victims. The officer and two other people were taken to Guadalupe Regional Medical Center, where the officer was treated and released.

Two other people were treated and released at the scene.

The police are investigating the crash.

Common Causes of Automobile Accidents

Gordon said. Mr. Gordon believes that an independent investigation is important. An Attorney will help obtain the crash report, secure accident photos, interview witnesses, and create a claim.
