One woman was killed and a man was injured in a single-car rollover accident five miles northwest of Runge during early morning hours February 15, according to a Texas Department of Public Safety report.

At about 4:22 a.m., 23-year-old Daisy Eve Ramirez of Runge was heading south on FM 81 when she took evasive action to the left. Her 2005 Pontiac Grand Am skid across both lanes of traffic into a line of trees on the east side of the highway.

The vehicle’s rear collided with a tree, causing Ramirez to be ejected. The passenger, 22-year-old Karnes City resident Michael John Morin, remained in the vehicle. Neither occupant had been wearing their seatbelt, according to the report.

Police are unsure exactly why Ramirez took evasive action.

Morin was transported to University Hospital in San Antonio. Precinct 4 Justice of the Peace Gilbert Garza pronounced Ramirez dead at 6:30 a.m. that morning.
