Texas Family of Five, Including Three Children, Dies After SUV Falls From Overpass

A Texas family of five, including three young children, was killed when their SUV plunged from an Interstate 10 overpass in Seguin, authorities said.

The victims were identified as 30-year-old Omar Lumbreras Oliva, his 31-year-old wife Ana Deli Lumbreras, and their three children, ages 13, 6, and 3. The family lived in Porter, a community northeast of Houston.

According to police, the crash occurred shortly before 1 p.m. on November 8 as the family traveled eastbound in a black Chevrolet Tahoe. Investigators said the SUV left the roadway, went over an overpass, and crashed onto Farm-to-Market Road 725 below.

All five occupants were pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities reported that rain was falling at the time of the crash, leaving roads wet and hazardous. Preliminary findings suggest the vehicle may have hydroplaned before the driver lost control. Investigators believe an overcorrection may have caused the SUV to leave the roadway, fall from the bridge, and overturn.

The fatal crash remains under investigation.

The tragedy has sparked an outpouring of grief from family members and friends. A fundraiser has been organized to help cover funeral expenses and other costs facing surviving relatives.

In an emotional Facebook post, Omar’s sister, Gloria, expressed her heartbreak over the loss.

“I wish this was a dream. Dear God, please give us strength,” she wrote. “My nephews, my brother, Ana, I love you guys so much. My heart is so broken right now.”

As investigators continue to examine the circumstances surrounding the accident, loved ones are mourning the sudden loss of an entire family whose deaths have left a lasting impact on those who knew them.
