Edinburg, TX (KRGV) — A 19-year-old Edinburg man died following a four-vehicle crash early Tuesday morning after one of the vehicles failed to yield the right of way.

The crash happened around 7:45 a.m. at the intersection of 10th and Chapin streets north of Edinburg, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

A preliminary investigation revealed the driver of a Ford Escape entered the intersection and failed to yield to a northbound Yamaha motorcycle driven by Dongjun Kim, causing the deadly collision.

The impact of the crash caused the Ford to collide with a GMC Canyon pickup truck that was stopped at the intersection, and the GMC then hit a Cadillac XT5 SUV. 

Kim was wearing a helmet, protective jacket, and gloves. He died at the hospital.

Four other people, identified as the occupants of the Ford and GMC vehicles, were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, DPS said, adding that the investigation is ongoing.
