Hardeman County, TX – Three people from Denver, Colorado, were killed in a head-on collision involving a passenger vehicle and a semi-truck early Sunday morning in Hardeman County, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

The crash occurred at approximately 12:45 a.m. on Sunday, July 5, along US Highway 287.

The driver of the Hyundai, 27-year-old Eduyn Yohande Torrealba Evias of Denver, and his passengers, 33-year-old Yusney Alexeya Mora Mora and a 4-year-old child, also of Denver, were all pronounced dead at the scene.

The driver of the Kenworth was not injured in the crash.
