(June 30, 2008)—Police Monday released the names of the victims of an early-morning accident Sunday in Killeen that left two dead and one injured.

Xantavia Phillips, 23, whom police identified as a Fort Hood soldier, and Leslie Spear, 23, of Coppell died in the collision around 3:45 a.m. Sunday on Highway 190 about one mile east of the Clear Creek Exit, police said.

The two drivers were taken to Carl Darnall Army Medical Center at Fort Hood where they were both pronounced dead around 6:15 a.m. Sunday.

Amanda Elmore, 22, of Temple was taken to Scott & White Hospital in Temple with what the Department of Public Safety said were serious injuries.

Information about her condition was not available.

Phillips was westbound on Highway 190 in a 2003 Cadillac DeVille when it collided head on with Spear’s 2005 Ford Mustang, which the DPS said appeared to have been headed east in the westbound lane.

i cant believe leslies family paid a lawyer to changet the verdict on the accident it is officially and legally his fault now??? just bc her parents have money and they want to cover up that her lesbian daughter was partying and went drove on the wrong side of the road?now my sons father has it on permanent record that it was his fault and im in so much pain over it. i hate people with money and power they are evil its not fair no one deserves to die tragedies happen but to leslies parent?your hurting everyone to keep your perfet image of your family its not morally right why did you do that to his family you have to face god and you have to recieve your judgement. it may have been an accident what happend but its unacceptable to make him look bad just to cast blame. your hurting people by doing so. your money may be able to buy what you want on earth but it cant buy your judgement after earth.im sorry for your loss were all hurting but what you did made xantavias loved ones hurt more
