SEALY, Texas — Investigators say a child riding in the front seat of a car was killed when part of a Central Texas highway bridge collapsed after being hit by a truck.

Sealy police say a woman driving the car was critically hurt in the crash Thursday morning after part of the truck struck a Highway 90 overpass. Debris from the damaged bridge fell onto Highway 36 and hit the car.
