A Texas highway crash on Sunday evening left only one survivor. The deadly car crash occurred on Farm-to-Market Road 2722 in Comal County, Texas, just before 6:30 P.M.

The collision involved a black 2005 Ford F-150 pickup truck and a black 2007 Chrysler Aspen SUV.

While the pickup truck was moving in a southerly direction, the SUV was driving the other way. The crash killed all passengers except the 12-year-old girl in the black SUV, who showed signs of life when authorities arrived.

According to Fox News, the child was in a life-threatening condition when transferred to the University Hospital in San Antonio.

The driver was the father, Albertin Olvera Gonzalez, 39, and the passenger seat was occupied by the mother, Nancy Olvera Gonzalez, 44.

Riding in the back were the four youngsters: two males, ages eight and 17, and two girls, ages six and 12. All three died, leaving the 12-year-old girl as the only survivor.
