Vice Consul Monterrey Killed in Car Accident, Cause Unknown For the Present

Muere Brian Matthew Faughan, alto funcionario de la embajada de Estados Unidos en carretera a Torreón - this local report describes his car as an armored vehicle, but I’d wait for USG confirmation on that. https://t.co/eGtQzTbitU

The fatal accident happened two weeks ago, but the first photos I'd seen are in a Daily Mail report here.  

Something I haven't seen so far is an official State Department account of the accident. There is no reason to believe it was due to an attack, or was anything other than a motor vehicle accident. 

The use of an armored vehicle may, possibly, suggest that the unusual driving dynamics of armored vehicles played a part. 

There is surely an official investigation going on into this accident, so I assume we'll eventually learn more.
