Texas authorities confirmed that one person died, and two others were sent to the hospital when two grain elevators collapsed on Independence Day. 

"Search has concluded, and one male was found deceased. Please keep the family and the town of Tynan in your thoughts and prayers," the Bee County Sheriff's Office wrote on Facebook.

Two grain elevators ruptured and reportedly collapsed onto two 18-wheelers and another vehicle Tuesday, KIII-TV reported. 

According to the outlet, one person was transported to CHRISTUS Spohn Shoreline by ambulance, while a second injured person was flown there by HALO-Flight.
