The Alma Police Department is conducting an investigation about a crash on Interstate 45, a local news source says.
According to initial reports, the Texas Department of Public Safety officials responded to northbound I-45 after receiving a crash alert at around 6:00 a.m. A pickup truck was heading north on the highway when, for undetermined reasons, it rear-ended a tractor-trailer. The impact of the collision was so great that it caused both vehicles to catch fire.
The driver of the pickup truck, who was identified as 44-year-old Arturo Renovator, died in the process. Fortunately, no one else was injured.
Investigators are still gathering more details surrounding the crash. Anyone with information relevant to the case is encouraged to get in touch with Alma police.

Car accidents are a serious problem in this day and age, and yet they still happen quite often. According to the National Highway Traffic Administration (NHTSA), car accidents happen almost every minute of every day, and for every 16 minutes, a car accident occurs that results in death. So that is roughly about 6 million car accidents every year and 90 people dying in car accidents every day in the U.S. alone.
We believe that when someone loses a loved one from a car accident, they do not only suffer emotionally but financially as well. If you or your loved one is a victim of a car accident caused by wrongful actions or due to negligence, you may have the right to file for legal claims. Most of the time, families who are left behind after a tragic loss are not aware of their rights and the legal processes needed to obtain fair and just compensation. In times like this, you would need a professional who can provide you with all the support you need as you go through this difficult time.
