DPS Trooper Henderson said just before 6 a.m., a black SUV was traveling southbound on US 87 on the Chadbourne Street bridge when it struck a guardrail, caught fire and overturned.

"I do know there were three occupants," said Trooper Henderson. "One of them was burned, the other one was up walking around, and the third victim had minor scratches I believe; [it's] what they told me."
