Posted/updated on: September 5, 2015 at 2:33 pmLONGVIEW — Police Friday released the names of those involved in Thursday afternoon’s deadly accident in Longview. According to KETK, Longview police say Leing D. Hinson, 43, was killed when the van she was in ran into the back of a truck. The accident happened on I-20 at mile marker 595. Police say a truck traveling east in the outside lane was slowing down because traffic was backing up due to another accident. David Hinson, 49, was also traveling in the outside lane of I-20, but he was reportedly driving too fast. He tried to avoid the truck by swerving into the inside lanes. The right front passenger side of his car ran into the right rear driver’s side of the truck.
Leing Hinson was a passenger in the van. Two other passengers in the back seat, Hon Lee Xayaseng, 80, and Christopher Hinson, 1, were taken to a local hospital. Their conditions were not immediately known. David Hinson, the driver of the truck, and his passenger were not injured.
