An Amarillo man who was injured in a crash earlier Monday in Randall County has died from his injuries, authorities said.
At about 8:30 a.m. July 28, a fully-loaded cement truck was heading west on US 60, about half a mile west of Canyon, when it went off the roadway. A preliminary investigation showed the cement truck, a 2024 Freightliner 114SD, then entered the center median and overturned onto the driver’s side, the Texas Department of Public Safety said.
DPS said the driver, identified as Ruben Solis, 38, of Amarillo, was taken to Northwest Texas Hospital with serious injuries, where he later died.
Solis had been wearing a seatbelt. Road conditions were clear and dry at the time of the crash, which remains under investigation by Texas Highway Patrol.
