San Angelo, Texas (July 3, 2018) – The woman who was killed Friday evening in rear-end collision in San Angelo has been identified as Anna Bilberry Whitman, 83, of Mertzon, according to the Texas DPS.
The deadly accident happened at around 5:03 p.m. Friday, June 29 at the intersection of FM 2335 and U.S. 67.
According to the Texas DPS, Whitman was driving a 2011 Hyundai Tucson northbound on FM 2335 when she failed to yield the right-of-way to a southwest-bound Peterbilt rig as she turned onto U.S. 67.
The Peterbilt then struck the Tucson.
The impact caused the Tucson to spin clockwise off the road where it struck a metal light pole. The Tucson then rolled over and came to a rest upside down in the barrow ditch.
The Peterbilt driver, Leigh Ann Glass, 50, of San Angelo, was not injured.
Whitman was transported to the Shannon Medical Center emergency room where she later succumbed to her injuries while undergoing treatment.
According to the DPS, all occupants were wearing their seatbelts at the time of the accident. The weather was clear and the road was dry.
