The Texas Department of Public Safety said a 16-year-old died Wednesday night in what authorities believe was a human smuggling crash.
In a news release, DPS said the crash happened at 10:08 p.m. on Farm-to-Market Road 494 south of FM 1016 near Granjeno.
The preliminary investigation revealed that Hugo Andres Sifuentes, the teen driver, was operating a 2014 silver Ford Taurus with two men as passengers when he entered a curve, failed to negotiate a curve, veered off the roadway and crashed into an unoccupied trailer.
Both passengers are in critical condition at McAllen Medical Hospital.
DPS continues to investigate the crash.
