KILLEEN, Texas — One man is dead and another is in critical condition after a two-car crash in Killeen, according to the Killeen Police Department.

Police said officers responded to the crash around 5:32 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 7. They say the crash occurred at the intersection of E. Rancier Avenue and Benttree Drive.

According to police, a preliminary investigation suggests that a black Chevrolet Traverse was stopped at the intersection attempting to turn left onto E. Rancier Avenue.

The drivers of both vehicles were reportedly taken to Baylor Scott & White Hospital in Temple in critical condition. Police said a passenger in the Altima was also taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

The driver of the Traverse, identified by police as 32-year-old Christian Lamar Williams, reportedly died of his injuries later that day.

Killeen PD reported the driver of the Altima is currently listed in "stable but critical condition".

The Killeen PD Traffic Unit is reportedly investigating the crash. No further information has been given at this time.
