Perez, from San Saba, was traveling southbound, according to DPS Troopers.

Harris, from Brownwood, was traveling northbound, also towing a cargo trailer.

The Chevrolet failed to maintain its lane, crossing into northbound traffic and into Harris’ path, according to the investigating Trooper.

Both Harris and Perez were pronounced dead at the scene by Justice of the Peace Sharon Blossman.

A 23-year-old male passenger who was inside Harris’ Dodge Ram sustained non-incapacitating injuries and was treated on the scene.
