A married couple in their 70s were killed Sunday in a three-vehicle crash near Springtown that also sent a Fort Worth woman and boy to the hospital.

The crash happened about 5:30 p.m. on Texas 199 (Jacksboro Highway) near Agnes North, west of Springtown, a Texas Department of Public Safety trooper wrote in an email.

DPS Trooper Richard Hunter said the driver of an eastbound 2001 Chevrolet pickup lost control “due to rain-slick road and traveled sideways into the opposite lane of travel.”

The pickup was hit in the passenger-side door by a westbound 2007 Honda driven by a 36-year-old Fort Worth woman, Hunter said.

The pickup driver, Anastasio Bugarin, 76, and his wife, Romana Bugarin, 71, both of Jacksboro, were pronounced dead at the scene at 5:38 p.m., according to the Tarrant County medical examiner’s office.

They died of multiple blunt force injuries, according to the medical examiner’s office.

A 10-year-old boy in the pickup was taken to Cook Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth with undisclosed injuries.

A 2011 Ford F-250 truck in the westbound lane was also hit.

“The Honda was spinning after the initial impact with the Chevrolet. While the Honda was spinning, it took a glancing blow to the side from the Ford pickup,” Hunter said.

The Ford left the roadway and hit a fence, Hunter said. The driver, a 67-year-old Springtown man, was not injured.
