On arrival they found a deceased hispanic male in his 20's who apprently lost control of his ford maustang and struck a pole.

The second incident occured at the 1500 blk of Galveston when a mid sized four door sedan traveling with six teenagers lost control and ran into a house. The vehicle came to a halt in the dining room of the residence. Five of the peaople from the vehicle were transported to a local hospital. Two of the patients had to be extricated from the vehicle by fire crews with the Jaws of Life. Sadly, one patient died on scene as a result of the injuries sustained.
