Five members of a Texas family killed in SUV crash near Seguin

Five members of a Texas family killed in SUV crash near Seguin

A couple and their three children died when their SUV left an overpass near Seguin, Texas, on Sunday afternoon.

Omar Lumbreras Oliva, 30, Ana Deli Lumbreras, 31, and their children, aged 13, six and three, were travelling home to Porter near Houston.

The SUV went off Interstate 10 and landed on its roof on FM 725.

Authorities believe the SUV may have hydroplaned on the wet road, but the cause remains under investigation.

A local justice of the peace said the crash involved an overcorrection.

The children were buckled into seats in the back of the vehicle.

The crash killed all five family members, and the children's names have not been released.

Omar's sister has started a fundraiser to help pay funeral costs, and the family is preparing to lay them to rest.
