A father and daughter were killed Thursday when the station wagon they were riding in was hit by a pickup truck that ran a red light.
The accident happened just after noon at the intersection of State Highway 130 and East Parmer Lane, in Northeast Austin.
Nelson Taylor, 45, a Dell employee and his daughter, Andrea Taylor, 20, a music student at Huston-Tillotson University, were both killed.
After the pickup truck driver ran the red light, his vehicle T-boned the smaller Subaru station wagon, a Texas Department of Public Safety trooper said.
The driver of the pickup and its three passengers were examined at the scene. Their injuries were minor.
The truck driver could be cited for running a red light. The DPS investigation into the crash continues, but they do not believe the incident was alcohol-related.
