NEW BRAUNFELS, TX – A motorcyclist was killed yesterday evening when he collided with a pickup truck and then a pair of oncoming cars, KSAT reports.
New Braunfels police say the multi-vehicle collision happened at the intersection of Highway 46 and Oak Run Point at about 5:45 p.m. on April 8.
Russell Camp III was riding his motorcycle east on TX 46 when he struck a pickup truck. That collision sent him into the westbound lanes, where he was hit by two oncoming vehicles.
