El Paso TX – A tragic two-vehicle collision in Northeast El Paso claimed one life as a dust storm swept through the region. The accident occurred around 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 18, 2025 at Gateway South Boulevard and Sean Haggerty Drive. Authorities have not confirmed whether the severe weather conditions played a role in the crash. The El Paso Police Department’s Special Traffic Investigations Unit is actively investigating the incident.
The storm, which turned the skies an eerie sand color, brought powerful wind gusts and dangerously low visibility, prompting officials to urge residents to stay off the roads. Nearby, in New Mexico’s Otero County, a multi-vehicle crash led to the closure of U.S. 54 in both directions between Alamogordo and Orogrande.
