UPDATE 6/25/26 4pm: Tractor-trailer driver stayed after Alamo expressway crash, then left: Records

According to the affidavit, when an officer responded to the scene, he saw a silver Dodge Durango with major damage and a white truck tractor stationary on the outer lane of Interstate 2.

The officer also saw a man, later identified as Ramirez, “wearing a red shirt and blue jeans standing near the accident.”

The officer then made contact with Davila Jr., who had a cut on his right eyebrow, and asked the officer to help his daughter, who was lying on the road with injuries.

That’s when the officer “observed the white truck tractor was no longer at [the] location,” according to the affidavit.

The Alamo Criminal Investigation Division tracked down the tractor-trailer in Hidalgo, where they met with Ramirez, who was wearing a red shirt and blue jeans.

Ramirez was interviewed at the location and stated he “was driving to his place of residence in Nuevo Leon, Mexico,”

NEW TONIGHT 6/24/26 5:15 pm: Two more arrests have been made in connection with last week's serious Interstate 2 crash in Alamo that left multiple children injured, including one who was ejected from the vehicle.

The Alamo Police Department announced Wednesday that investigators arrested Francisco Davila Jr., the driver of the Dodge Durango, and passenger Samantha Vianney Rodriguez. Both are charged with Endangering a Child (Imminent Bodily Injury).

According to investigators, video evidence showed the Durango was traveling at a high rate of speed and attempted an unsafe lane change before colliding with a tractor-trailer and rolling over. Police say several children were ejected during the crash and investigators found multiple occupants were not properly restrained, including children sharing seat belts and a child safety seat that was not properly secured.

Police also provided new details on the arrest of Jose Fidencio Luna Ramirez, the driver of the tractor-trailer. Investigators said they located him in Hidalgo, where he told officers he was driving to his residence in Nuevo LeĂłn, Mexico. Ramirez was taken into custody without incident and is charged with Collision Involving Serious Bodily Injury (Failure to Give Information) and Collision Involving Injury (Failure to Give Information) for allegedly leaving the scene of the crash.

On the topic of safe driving, here’s something I captured Tuesday on I-2.

Immediately during a break in the heavy downpours, I recorded two vehicles literally racing through a busy stretch of interstate despite wet road conditions. Less than half a mile down the road, emergency responders were already working an unrelated crash.

The two incidents were not connected, but seeing them so close together was a reminder of how quickly conditions can change on the roadway.

Rain, standing water, reduced visibility, and high speeds can be a dangerous combination. If you’re driving during or after a storm:

đźš— Slow down
đźš— Increase your following distance
đźš— Avoid aggressive driving and racing
đźš— Stay alert for emergency vehicles and hazards ahead

No destination and no bragging rights are worth risking your life—or someone else’s.

Proud to have served as chair of our local committee for Nexstar’s Founder’s Day of Caring in the Rio Grande Valley.

Coordinating an effort involving 80 employees across three nonprofit partners—Boys & Girls Clubs of McAllen, Good Neighbor Settlement House, and Sea Turtle, Inc.—required months of planning, coordination, and teamwork. Together, our team is contributing more than 320 volunteer hours to organizations making a difference across the Rio Grande Valley.

We also expanded our impact beyond volunteer service through a “30 Nonprofits in 30 Days” campaign, highlighting local organizations across our broadcast, streaming, digital, and social platforms to help amplify their missions and connect them with our audiences.

Grateful for the opportunity to lead this effort and work alongside so many colleagues committed to giving back to the communities we serve. Looking forward to continuing our volunteer work tomorrow at Sea Turtle, Inc.
