PLANTERSVILLE, TX (June 26, 2026) — A 32-year-old Navasota resident lost his life Friday morning following a multi-vehicle collision along Highway 105 East near the Relay Station in Plantersville, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS).
The collision occurred at approximately 6:30 a.m.
Preliminary findings indicate that Javier Morales-Perez was driving a 2014 Honda CR-V eastbound on Highway 105 when he slowed to make a left turn into a construction site. Investigators said a 2019 Subaru Outback traveling behind the Honda failed to slow down and struck the rear of the CR-V.
The force of the impact pushed the Honda into the westbound lanes, where it was struck head-on by a Ford F-350.
Morales-Perez was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities said the drivers of the Subaru Outback and the Ford F-350 were treated at the scene and later released.
