Three people, including an off-duty Border Patrol agent, were killed and two others were injured after an SUV collided with a wild hog Christmas night in Texas.





Texas Department of Public Safety Spokesman Sgt. Conrad Hein said Tuesday that a preliminary investigation indicated that a Ford Expedition collided with the hog, causing the vehicle to swerve into oncoming traffic and hit a Mercedes SUV head-on on a rural road near Uvalde.
The two vehicles caught fire, according to the Uvalde Leader-News.


The Expedition's driver, 51-year-old Ruby Garza, and the driver of the Mercedes, 27-year-old Antonio Cordova, the off-duty agent, were pronounced dead at the scene.
Garza had been traveling with three people: Julia Vazquez, 51, Mayra Vasquez and Naomi Acuna, according to the Leader-News. Julia Vazquez died at a hospital. The conditions of Mayra Vazquez and Acuna were not immediately known.

Early one morning I saw a dead hog on a rural Texas Highway with shattered car parts scattered down the road for a mile. Very sad for this family in the article. While hunting them last week in a very wooded area I had a sounder walk by, 10 or so hogs with 10 or more piglets. On another property I was riding my ATV and a line of 15 or so juvenile hogs went running right in front of me. I just started hunting them a few months ago and each time I am learning what not to do....I usually will get one shot maybe two at the most and they are gone into cover. I need a machine gun mounted on the front of my ATV
