Fatal Crash Remains Under Investigation
FRIONA - Though still under investigation, failure to yield to a freight train may have caused a collision between a truck and a Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway train that killed two Canyon residents Friday afternoon, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.
Charles Curtis Berry, 32, was driving a 2005 Peterbilt truck northbound on a private road about two miles west of town when the eastbound train's engine collided with the driver's side about 3:25 p.m. Friday, reports show.
Berry and his passenger, Teresa McBride, 39, died on impact. The pair was returning from dropping off the truck's trailer at a nearby truck wash facility, according to DPS.
The railroad crossing has no signal.
The train's engineer was not injured. None of the train's cars were derailed by the impact, and authorities cleared the accident scene Friday night.
