SAN MARCOS, Texas (KXAN) - A one-vehicle crash into a utility pole on Post Road claimed the life of a 19-year old San Marcos man on Tuesday.

David A Whitlock of 210 Buttercup Lane in San Marcos was taken by helicopter to University Medical Center at Brackenridge in Austin where he later died.

The wreck occurred around 10:40 p.m. on Christmas in the 1800 block of Post Road. Whitlock was driving north when his 2003 Chevy Cavalier left the roadway and struck a utility pole. He was alone in the car.

Emergency units set up a landing zone at Travis Elementary School where a helicopter landed and flew him to Brackenridge.

The investigation remained ongoing. This was the 13th traffic fatality in 2012 in San Marcos.
