Lufkin Crash on 103

On 9/7/15 at about 8:00 AM, a two vehicle crash occurred on SH 103 east,
 
approximately six miles East of Lufkin. The preliminary crash investigation 
 
indicates that a 2014 Mack truck tractor semi-trailer and a 2013 Chevrolet pickup 
 
were both traveling eastbound on SH 103. The Mack truck was reportedly making 
 
a right turn onto Tom Holland Road when the Chevrolet truck took evasive action 
 
to the right to avoid striking the vehicle from behind and subsequently struck the 
 
truck and then struck a utility pole and a fence. The driver of the Mack truck was 
 
identified as Jose Gustavo Castillo (32), from Nacogdoches, TX. Castillo was not 
 
injured as a result of the crash. The driver of the Chevrolet pickup was identified as 
 
Shawn Michael Favor (20), from Hemphill, TX. Faver was traveling with three 
 
passengers, two of which were transported to Woodland Heights Hospital with 
 
non-life threatening injuries. Faver reportedly had been drinking and pending the 
 
outcome of the investigation could face criminal charges. This crash remains under 
 
investigation and no additional information is available at this time.
