On its official Facebook page, the Zavala County Sherriff’s office said:
On Sunday September 26, 2021 at approximately 1:20am ZCSO deputy overheard a Crystal City Police Department officer initiate a traffic stop on US Highway 83 at the intersection of FM3292. CCPD officer advised he was in an active pursuit with a white Chevy Camaro that was traveling north on Highway 83 towards La Pryor.
Following this, the officer reported that he was chasing a white Chevy Camaro driving on Highway 83, the same car Salazar was driving. Furthermore, during the pursuit, Salazar’s Camero “drove off the road, over-corrected, and traveled across the roadway, onto the west barrow ditch”.
Due to his speed, Salazar struck some trees and the vehicle violently rolled several times and caught fire. Here are some photos of the incident:
