SAN ANGELO, TX — A three-vehicle crash near San Angelo early Thursday morning left a 10-year-old child and another driver dead, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.
It happened just before 6 a.m. at the intersection of U.S. 87 and March Road, when a 2022 Ford F-250 pickup driven by Shelton Bailey McDonald, 28, of San Angelo, allegedly ran a stop sign, striking two northbound vehicles.
Rudy Ramos, 41, who was driving a 2020 Chevrolet Spark, and a 10-year-old passenger in his vehicle died at the scene, both pronounced deceased by Judge Speck. Three other occupants of the Chevrolet, including Annie Marie Puga, 30, and two young children, were transported to Shannon Medical Center with minor injuries.
The third vehicle, a 2024 Toyota Tundra driven by Rosendo Zapata, 42, of San Angelo, was also struck, though Zapata was uninjured.
DPS troopers are investigating the crash with assistance from the Tom Green County Sheriff’s Office and Grape Creek Volunteer Fire Department. Road and weather conditions were clear and dry at the time of the incident.

THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE GRAPE CREATIONS SHORT CUT.
OVER THE YEARS MORE PEOPLE HAVE PROBABLY DIED OR MAIMED AT THIS SPECIFIC CROSSOVER SINCE 87 HAS BEEN A 4 LANE.
DONT UNDERSTAND WHY COUNTY HASNT LOOK AT THE NUMBERS AND FIGURED THIS OUT.
MARK MY WORDS, THE COUNTY WILL PUT IN SOME SORT OF FLASHING LIGHT UP AND CALL IT GOOD FOR ANOTHER UNNECESSARY DEATH!!
IT IS WAY PAST TIME TO REMOVE THIS CROSSOVER.
THIS INTERSECTION CROSSOVER NEEDS TO BE REMOVED.

PermalinkI'd agree there. There needs to be an access road for all of those exits before the overpass. Make them all use that just like every other highway does. We can't control peoples impatience but we can most certainly control the route they take while driving.
Also when do they plan on arresting the young man who ran the stop sign for vehicular manslaughter x2?? It was clearly his fault that two people died.
