It's April 19th. Welcome in. This is Dallas News today, where local news meets AI. Early Saturday morning, a tractor trailer flipped on US Highway 287 in Wichita County, Texas, killing two people inside. It happened around 12.29am near mile marker 326 when strong crosswinds hit the rig hard. The truck was heading southeast, a 2020 Peter build pulling a 2021 Wilson trailer. Winds pushed it off the right side toward an overpass, then the driver over corrected, rolling it on to the passenger side into a guardrail. The victims were 43-year-old Joshua Bratz need from Banks, Alabama, driving, and 31-year-old Ashley Ramirez-Delo Santos Corona from. Thomasville, Georgia, riding along. Neither wore a seatbelt, and they were pronounced dead right there on a wet windy road with a 75-mile per hour speed limit. Troopers from Texas Department of Public Safety blamed the weather for the loss of control, but they're still digging into full
details. This serves as a stark reminder to buckle up and respect those Texas winds, stay safe out there on the highways.
