The impact forced the truck that was struck from behind into the other lane.. where it hit a suburban.

McDonald, who was passing, then hit a Ford F-150.  McDonald died at the scene.

Three other people were taken by ambulance to a hospital.

Beaumont Police blocked Highway 124 from Downs Road to Brooks Road for almost three hours, while clearing the scene.
