Mangled cars spotted at the scene of Dixie Chicks founder Laura Lynch’s fatal head-on collision in Texas

Shocking videos show the mangled wreckage of cars after the fatal crash that killed Dixie Chicks founder Laura Lynch.

Lynch, 65, died last week in a car crash outside El Paso, Texas.

Her cousin Mick Lynch revealed that she had died while driving from El Paso to Dell City, about 90 miles east.

The Texas Department of Public Safety later confirmed the star’s death.

Now heartbreaking video obtained by TMZ shows the catastrophic aftermath of the crash.

The accident appears to have occurred after another vehicle traveling in the opposite direction entered Lynch’s roadway head-on

The footage shows the crumpled remains of the Ford F-150 Lynch, which was seen driving at the time of the crash, lying on the side of the road, the outlet reports.

Lynch played upright bass for the original quartet line-up of the Dixie Chicks, before taking on lead vocals later in her stint.

The group’s current trio lineup changed its name to simply The Chicks in 2020 in the wake of racial justice protests sparked by the killing of George Floyd.

According to a preliminary investigation by police, Lynch was driving eastbound on Highway 62 at the time she was killed.

Another car traveling west reportedly crossed the dotted line on an undivided portion of the two-way highway to pass a slower vehicle in front of it.

As the opposing vehicle entered the eastbound lane, it struck Lynch’s car head-on, killing her.

Despite the severity of Lynch’s injuries, the other driver survived with non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to a hospital.

The crash was apparently devastating and the musician was pronounced dead at the scene.

In a statement on Instagram from the band, now known as The Chicks, they paid tribute to Lynch.

The statement said: “We are shocked and saddened by the passing of Laura Lynch, a founding member of The Chicks.

“We have a special place in our hearts for the time we spent together making music, laughing and traveling.

Laura was a bright light, her infectious energy and humor adding a spark to the early days of our band.

“Laura had a gift for design, a love of all things Texas and was instrumental in the band’s early success.

“Her undeniable talents have helped us expand beyond street corners and stages throughout Texas and the Midwest. Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones at this sad time.”

Lynch played bass and sang in the band’s original lineup, releasing two albums Thank Heavens for Dale Evans in 1990 and ‘Little Ol’ Cowgirl’ in 1992.

After leaving the band in 1995, Lynch became a public relations officer at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, and spent her spare time oil painting.
