One person is dead and at least two others injured after a crash at the intersection of Lucius McCelvey Drive and N.W HK Dodgen Loop in Temple Tuesday morning.

According to a social media post from the Temple Police Department, a small Chevy pickup was headed south along Lucius McCelvey shortly before 11 AM when the driver failed to yield the right of way to another Chevy pickup traveling east on the loop.

The drivers of both vehicles were taken to Baylor Scott & White Hospital. A passenger in the truck that failed to yield was pronounced dead at the scene.
