SAN ANTONIO — Authorities say a woman and teenage girl are dead – and two others are injured – after an apparent head-on collision in southwest Bexar County Saturday afternoon. The incident occurred near the intersection of La Esperansa and Fischer Road, south of I-35 near Von Ormy.
Matthew Brown, a sergeant with the San Antonio Police Department, said a sedan carrying the two female victims was traveling eastbound before it suddenly veered into the westbound lanes, eventually colliding with a truck occupied by a man and woman.
The two passengers in the sedan – 32-year-old Amanda Vega-Bocanegra and her daughter, 15-year-old Julissa – were pronounced dead at the scene, Brown said. The occupants of the truck, both in their 40s, were taken to a local hospital; Brown said they are in stable condition.
Brown said their information comes from witness testimony, and added a third vehicle may have been involved, but the investigation is ongoing.
A GoFundMe was established Sunday to provide funds for Amanda and Julissa's funeral and sercices.
