The Gatesville community is mourning the loss of a 16-year-old fatally injured in a car crash Wednesday night.

KWTX's Paul J. Gately reports that emergency responders were sent to the crash site along Texas 107 east of Gatesville around 7:30 PM.

Details about the crash are scarce, but KWTX reports that the fatally injured teen was a male member of the Gatesville High School band. However, police have not released the teen's name.

Gatesville ISD officials have postponed both the district's 6th grade band concert and football banquet in order to allow for a respectful time of grieving for the lost student.
