BELL COUNTY (November 23, 2009)--Several law enforcement agencies continued to look Monday for a driver who may have been responsible for a deadly accident Sunday evening.

The victim of the accident was identified Monday as Juan Garcia, 39, of Harker Heights.

He was killed just after 5 p.m. Sunday when his truck ran off the road near FM 2484 and Union Grove Lane just south of Stillhouse Hollow Lake and slammed into a tree.

Investigators are looking for the driver of another car who may have been responsible for the accident and are looking into reports that two vehicles were involved in some sort of chase before the deadly crash.

Salado volunteer firefighters, DPS Troopers, Killeen Police and the Bell County Sheriff's Office all responded to the accident.

Investigators at the scene say they have some details about the car involved but won't release them until the driver is found.
