At least 13 people were killed and about a dozen others were taken to hospitals after a gravel truck slammed into an overloaded SUV just north of the U.S.-Mexico border, authorities said.

The crash occurred about 6:15 a.m. PT at State Route 115 and Norrish Road in Imperial County, about 15 miles from the border, the highway patrol said.

The semitruck full of gravel hit a maroon Ford Expedition filled with 25 passengers, the highway patrol said.

The dead included some Mexican citizens ages 20 to 55, authorities said; the injured were 16 to 55.

What does the color of the vehicle have to do with anything?

"Some Mexican citizens..."

I'm sure the others had names like Shanice Jackson and Harvey Mendelbaum

This is one of the reasons Trump wanted to firmly close the border. You can’t blame these people for wanting to come to the US if it’s easy to get in. So that just lets the human traffickers go wild, pack them into vans or semi trailers or anything they can get them into, and this is what happens. There were many incidents like this until Trump got a grip on the border situation.

But now the traffickers are high fiving each other because they can go back to business as usual. Now nobody cares what happens to the people they ship in, but Trump did.

We own an Expedition. Those people bad to be pretty small. They were probably being taken to the marijuana orchards up here in Northern Commiefornia. As I understand it, they like slaves, upp, oop, I mean workers with small hands because it’s easier and quicker to snip the buds off the plants.

Hidden message there, Eagle...maroon is the primary color for Texas A&M. Perhaps the reporter went to UT Austin.

I don't think Ford will include the new seating capacity in future commercials.

Maroon is a mix of other colors of the light spectrum . Shows diversity.
