Texas DPS names 1 killed, 2 injured in south Lubbock County ******

Officials have identified one person who died and two who were injured in a two-vehicle ****** Saturday night in south Lubbock County.

Fabian Vitolas, 36 of New Home, was pronounced dead at the scene of the ****** that was reported at 9:35 p.m. Saturday on U.S. Highway 87 near County Road 7150, according to a statement from the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Investigators believe he was driving a 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche west on CR 7150 when he disregarded a stop sign at the intersection with U.S. 87, continuing onto the highway. A 2017 Dodge Durango that was northbound on U.S. 87 struck the driver’s side of the Avalanche.

The driver of the Durango, 40-year-old Amanda Rodriguez of Lubbock, was wearing a seatbelt and suffered minor injuries. She was taken to University Medical Center for treatment.

The passenger in the Avalanche, 22-year-old Christopher Dunn of Carlsbad, New Mexico, suffered serious injuries and was taken to UMC. He was also wearing a seatbelt.

Other factors contributing to the ****** were not immediately clear as the investigation was ongoing.
