CAMPBELLTON, Texas (AP) — A woman from the Dallas area and a man from south Texas died when a tour bus bound for Mexico wrecked near Campbellton.

The Department of Public Safety on Wednesday identified the fatalities as 62-year-old Christina Lozano Campos of Lewisville and 27-year-old Efrain Cominquez-Valenzuela of Brownsville.

DPS spokeswoman Tela Mange says both were dead at the scene Tuesday.

The other 40 people on the bus were taken to San Antonio-area hospitals.

A spokeswoman for University Hospital said six victims were still hospitalized Wednesday. Julie Wylie says five were stable and one was critical.

Calls from The Associated Press about other injured riders, transported to Wilford Hall Medical Center, Brooke Army Medical Center and South Texas Regional Medical Center, were not immediately returned Wednesday

The Americanos USA bus had left San Antonio and was headed for Matamoros, Mexico.
