SON OF EL MANTE BAR OWNER DIES IN CAR CRASH


Texas Dept. of Public Safety

The son of Don Lupito Martinez –  Edgar Alberto Martinez, 50, of Brownsville – was killed early Saturday after crashing his vehicle into a tree.

Don Lupito, who retired from the Brownsville Public Utility Board, is well known to patrons of EL Mante Bar which he took over after his PUB retirement. His years at the utility allowed him to meet and know numerous acquaintances who frequent his bar. 

The DPS said that Martinez was the driver of a black Ford Focus traveling northbound around 5:02 a.m. on Farm-to-Market Road 1419, south of Alaska Road in Brownsville.

His vehicle “veered left, went into a side skid off the roadway, colliding with a tree,” DPS said in a news release.

Martinez, who died at the scene from his injuries, was the only occupant in the vehicle.

DPS troopers said the investigation into the accident us ongoing.

Nuestros pesames to Don Lupito.

Paul McCartney died and was replaced in 1966. I hope that one day Paul will find justice.

You are right but this man's death appears to be an accident. Who knows?Maybe he had a heart attack while driving.

There is no room for your comment during this tragedy. He was young bt when God calls you, you can't say no.

He blew his mind out in a car.
He didn't notice that the light had changed.
