A man from the Houston area died in a one-vehicle accident on US 59 at FM 1127 on Wednesday night. Carbajal Valparaiso was ejected from his vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene, according to Sgt. Gary Wright of the San Jacinto County office of the Texas Department of Public Safety. The accident occurred around 10:56 p.m., just a mile north of Shepherd. Valparaiso was traveling northbound on US 59 when he failed to stay in a single lane. He veered into the east ditch, overcorrected, and rolled his vehicle multiple times. The force of the accident caused him to be ejected from the vehicle, resulting in his death.
Sgt. Wright, who is currently at the border, did not have information about the type of vehicle Valparaiso was driving or his age as he did not have a unit available that night. Troopers from Polk County were covering for the San Jacinto County office at the time of the accident. Valparaiso’s next of kin have been notified of the tragic incident.
