EL PASO, Texas - El Paso police said one person was killed along Transmountain Road in west El Paso on Wednesday morning after a cement mixer crashed into a semi-trailer hauling beer and other alcoholic beverages.

Video taken by motorist Jonathan Nava Galvan on Transmountain Road near N. Desert Boulevard at the time of the 8:40 a.m. crash shows the cement mixer barreling through the intersection without stopping for a red light, smashing into the truck's trailer and nearly obliterating it - scattering debris all around.

The witness indicated it looked like the cement mixer was a runaway vehicle, never making an attempt to stop.

Police didn't offer any details on their investigation into the crash. Authorities also didn't identify who was killed in the collision.
