A brush fire along US 281 led to a three-car collision and serious injury of a Llano man on Tuesday evening, May 26.
Marble Falls Police said that three vehicles were involved in the crash that occurred on Tuesday at 5:34 p.m. when the driver of a black Ford Equinox glanced westward to look at a small brush fire on the side of US 281 and rear-ended a silver Hyundai Elantra.
“The Ford and the Hyundai were traveling northbound in the inside lane, and the Hyundai was traveling ahead of the Ford,” said Marble Falls Officer Tina Harvey.
Shandra Jarvis, 51, of Granite Shoals, glanced at the brush fire and looked back to see the Hyundai ahead of her had slowed down rapidly, Harvey said.
