SAN ANTONIO – The Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office identified a man killed earlier this week in a head-on crash on the Southeast Side.
Stephen Espino, 47, died from blunt force injuries, the medical examiner’s office said Wednesday night. His death was ruled an accident.
San Antonio police said Espino collided with a 31-year-old man driving a black SUV just after 4 p.m. Tuesday in the 3300 block of Pecan Valley Drive.
The department said the 31-year-old man was speeding northbound when he crossed over a median and hit a silver SUV driven by Espino head-on.
Authorities said no other injuries were reported.
Officers said they do not believe alcohol or drugs played a factor in the crash. It is unclear if any charges will be filed against the 31-year-old man.
Espino was rushed to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.
The 31-year-old remains hospitalized in critical condition, according to an SAPD preliminary report.
