NAVASOTA MAN KILLED IN GRIMES CO. CRASH

  

A Navasota man was killed after a multi-vehicle collision this (Friday) morning in Grimes County.

The crash occurred around 6:30 a.m. on Highway 105 near the Relay Station in Plantersville.

According to DPS Sergeant Justin Ruiz, a 2014 Honda CR-V was traveling eastbound on Highway 105 when it slowed to make a left turn into a construction site.  Ruiz said a 2019 Subaru Outback driving behind the Honda failed to control speed and struck the rear of the Honda.

The impact pushed the Honda into the westbound lanes, where it was struck head-on by a Ford F-350.

The driver of the Honda, 32-year-old Javier Morales-Perez of Navasota, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The drivers of the Subaru and Ford were treated on scene with suspected minor injuries and were released. 

The roadway was back open shortly after 11 a.m.
