A 13-year-old child was behind the wheel of a pickup truck involved in a head-on collision in Texas Tuesday evening that killed nine people, including six University of the Southwest golfers and their coach, the National Transportation Safety Board says
A 13-year-old boy drove the pickup truck involved in a fiery head-on collision in Texas that killed nine people, including six University of the Southwest golfers and their coach, a National Transportation Safety Board official said Thursday.
Preliminary information indicates the left front tire of the pickup was a spare that failed, causing the vehicle to pull hard to the left into oncoming traffic of a two-lane roadway, NTSB Vice Chairman Bruce Landsberg said. Investigators were able to identify the remains of the driver by his size, Landsberg said. Both vehicles were probably moving close to the posted speed limit of 75 mph, he said. Henrich Siemens, 38, of Seminole, Texas, was in the truck with the boy, authorities said.
