AUSTIN (KXAN) — One person is dead and another is seriously hurt after a reported crash in northeast Austin the evening of March 25.
Austin-Travis County EMS said crews were called to the 9000 block of Tuscany Way at 6:25 p.m. That’s just north of Highway 290 and near Exchange Drive.
One person was pronounced dead on scene. The Austin Police Department identified that person on Monday, March 29 as 28-year-old Armando Garcia-Sanchez.
APD said in the update its investigation shows Garcia-Sanchez was driving a brown, 2013 Honda Pilot, when he collided with an orange, 2009 Volvo semi-truck.
While APD reported the truck driver wasn’t hurt, ATCEMS at the time declared a trauma alert for another person and took them to Dell Seton Medical Center with serious, potentially life-threatening injuries.
This is still an open investigation. Anyone with information on the crash can call APD’s Vehicular Homicide Unit Detectives at (512) 974-4424.
