Tyler Man Killed In Pickup Crash
A Tyler man was killed Tuesday morning when the pickup he was traveling in struck a tree in northern Smith County.
According to a Texas Department of Public Safety report by trooper Steven Hodge, 52-year-old David Wesley Welch died at the scene about 4:30 a.m. Tuesday.
Hodge said Welch was traveling north of Farm-to-Market Road 14 just north of Farm-to-Market Road 2710 in a 1976 Chevrolet pickup when investigators believe a "distraction in the vehicle" caused him to leave the roadway and strike a tree.
Welch was pronounced dead at the scene by Smith County Precinct 4 Justice of Peace Mitch Shamburger.
