Three Dead, Two Injured after Fatal Wreck in Odessa

Odessa, TX (9/19/2020) – Three people are dead and two are injured after a car crash occurred Saturday morning in Odessa.

The accident happened around 2:55 a.m. at 52nd Street and Clover. An F-150 driven by 19-year-old Kaenan Garms ran a stop sign before hitting a GMC terrain driven by 19-year-old Andrew Nading. 

Garms and an 18-year-old passenger in the back seat were pronounced dead on the scene. 

Nading was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.

The passenger in the front seat of the GMC, 19-year-old Benjamin Luna, and the front passenger of the Ford F-150, 18-year-old D’Morriyon Breaux, were taken to the hospital, where they remain in good condition. 

Crash investigators will review all factors that may have led up to the accident and police reports will be made available in fourteen days.

Failing to yield at a stop sign is a violation of Texas roadway laws and a clear indication of negligence. If someone commits an act of negligence, and it results in injury, the victim has a right to file a claim for personal injury.
