According to the Texas Department of Public Safety, on Jun. 13 at around 10:20 p.m., troopers with the Texas DPS were dispatched to SH-153, six miles west of Winters, for the report of a major crash.

When the troopers arrived they discovered a 2020 Ford Edge and a 2017 Chevrolet Tahoe that had crashed in the middle of the highway. The Edge had caught fire and there were multiple individuals severely injured.

In the Edge two children ages 12 and 9 were transported to Hendrick Medical Center with critical and incapacitating injuries. The driver of the vehicle, Marisa B. Ramos, 20, of Plainview, a passenger, Cissy L. Ramos, 46 of Plainview, and a seven year old girl were pronounced dead at the scene. All of their bodies were taken to the Winters Funeral Home.
