This location in the eastbound lanes of US Highway 60 near the Cargill plant entrance has been the site of two fatal accidents within a 12-day span. A Friona woman was killed on July 13th and a Clovis man was killed on July 25th. The impact spots for both accidents are strikingly similar. The Department of Public Safety accident report markings on the pavement from the first accident can still be seen.
