A tragic accident has claimed the life of newlywed husband, Daniel Palacios III, as he and his wife, Christy Carrillo, were on their way to their honeymoon. The couple had just gotten married the day before the fatal crash. Palacios was driving on I-40 in Tennessee when their Toyota 4Runner swerved off the road, flipped multiple times, and was hit by a semi-truck, resulting in his death. Carillo survived but sustained injuries.
Palacios, an independently contracted truck driver, was not wearing his seatbelt at the time of the crash. The couple had become engaged in September 2023 and were starting their new life together. His father expressed his grief over the loss of his son but expressed gratitude for gaining a daughter through his son’s marriage to Carrillo.
The funeral for Palacios will be held on March 16, and the family is grateful for the outpouring of support and prayers during this difficult time. The tragic accident is part of a series of incidents on I-40 in Tennessee, as shortly after Palacios’ death, a plane crashed on the highway, resulting in the loss of five lives.
The family and friends of Palacios are mourning the untimely loss of a beloved husband and son, as they come to terms with this devastating tragedy. The community has rallied around the family, offering condolences and support during this difficult time.
