What Were Victims Doing?

Orampati and Shaik were returning home after visiting a relative in Dallas, while Palacharla was heading to Bentonville to reunite with his wife. Vasudevan, who held a Master’s degree from the University of Texas, was traveling to see her uncle.

Earlier, Vasudevan’s father had reached out to External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on X, seeking assistance in locating his daughter. He detailed her situation, mentioning that she had been in the U.S. for three years, including two years of Master’s studies and one year of employment, and was living in Frisco, Texas.

Meanwhile, the collision is believed to have been caused by a speeding truck that rear-ended the victims’ SUV, which then burst into flames.
