Shots echoed suddenly after Gerardo Villalobos Salgado left his car for a quick bite, leaving him fatally wounded in the driver's seat near the food truck he loved. Raquel Osorio heard the gunfire right after stepping aside on that November 7 evening at 3107 Blalock Road by Kempwood in Houston.

He was pronounced dead right there at the scene, no hospital, no chance—just gone. Jeremy Mitchell, thirty years old from Georgetown, died Thursday evening after his GMC Sierra left Sussex Highway in Delmar, crossed the median into oncoming lanes, then veered off again and hit a tree with fatal impact.

A 26-year-old man, Kelvin Mendez Cruz, now faces charges for the domestic murder of his intimate partner, Morgan Lynn Boss.

Police arrived just before 5 p.m. to discover the scene, with Cruz arrested and charged the following day.
She was already deep into the wrong lane when other drivers started seeing her—headlights where there shouldn't be any, a car moving toward them at full speed on a bridge with nowhere to go.

The moment a vehicle crosses the center line on a two-lane road, everyone in the path has roughly two seconds to process what's happening before metal meets metal at combined speeds that turn cars into crumpled wreckage.

Mandy Lee Butler's simple errand to fetch her 77-year-old dad from church ended in a deadly wrong-way crash that stole her from her two young sons forever on November 7 in Casper, Wyoming.

In the split second before impact, the dump truck driven by 65-year-old Nowel Alfonso crossed into the path of a speeding Amtrak passenger train, resulting in a deadly collision that unfolded at the busy Northlake Boulevard railroad crossing just west of Beeline Highway in West Palm Beach on Wednesday afternoon.
