TEMPLE, TX – One man died, and another sustained injuries Friday in a two-vehicle collision along the interstate in northeast Bell County, reports KCENTV 6.

Around 2 p.m., emergency crews responded to a rollover accident at the intersection of I-35, or North General Bruce Drive, and Hart Road in north Temple. This is around 35 miles southwest of Waco.

Police say that 28-year-old Leyton Hernandez failed to heed a stop sign, causing his vehicle to collide with another car in the intersection.
