Two Children Killed in Interstate Accident

According to San Angelo Live, a car crash claimed the lives of two sisters on March 2 according to Abilene Chief of Police Stan Standridge near mile marker 20 in Abilene. The first wreck occurred with a utility vehicle who lost its rear axle which resulted in the second crash which is the one that killed the two girls. An 18-wheeler abruptly stopped to avoid the wreck which caused a black minivan to halt and keep from rear-ending the 18-wheeler suddenly. A full-size pickup truck slammed into the back of the van which caused massive damage to the vehicle. Tragically, two young girls were sitting in the minivan and died as a result of the accident. The mother of the two girls who was driving the minivan was transported to the Hendrick Medical Center with severe injuries
