PITTSBURG — The investigation continues into a fiery two-vehicle wreck that left two Pittsburg men dead and another in fair condition in a Longview hospital. Bravlio Roman, 59, and Tommy Lee Hefner, 61, were killed after their sport utility vehicle was rear-ended by a vehicle driven by Jairo Perez, 21, Tuesday on U.S. 271 south of Pittsburg.
State troopers said a Honda Odyssey SUV was stopped on U.S. 271, waiting to make a left turn onto CR 1110, when it was hit by a Ford Ranger pickup driven by Perez. The wreck pushed the gas tank to the ground and the car caught on fire, Trooper Robby Moore said. Perez was taken to Good Shepherd Medical Center-Longview with two broken thigh bones.
