College Station Fire Department Officer, Jeff Kukyndell, takes
down accident information after a car and a parked bus collided
on Throckmorton. The driver was awaiting his departure time.
Woman
runs into
back of bus
A&M student
hit by car
In two unrelated auto acci
dents on the Texas A&M campus
this week, a College Station
woman drove a car into the back
of a University bus Wednesday
and an A&M student was injured
after being hit by a car Tuesday.
At 11:20 a.m. Wednesday, a
woman driving a 1982 Toyota
Corolla drove into the back of a
bus parked on Throckmorton
Street after letting her husband
out of the car.
The woman, who only had a
learner’s permit, suffered a cut
on her forehead after apparently
hitting the windshield, but she re
fused medical attention. A four-
year-old girl in the back seat was
not injured.
She was cited by University po
lice for failure to control the car’s
speed and for driving alone with
a learner’s permit.
At approximately 11 a.m.
Tuesday, an 18-year-old woman
was struck by a 1988 Chevrolet
Cavalier on Ross Street near
Heaton Hall.
The woman did not see the car
coming and started crossing the
street, University Police Depart
ment Associate Director Elmer
Schneider said.
She sustained broken teeth,
bruises and possible ligament
damage to one of her legs and
was transported to the A.P. Beu-
tel Health Center.
Schneider said no citations
were issued in the accident.

Priest faces
charges for
sexual assault
HOUSTON (AP) — A former
priest released on $50,000 bond re
turned here to await trial in Grimes
County on sexual assault charges
that were filed in connection with
testimony he gave during a trial in
volving the Catholic Church.
Fernando Noe Guzman, 39,
posted bond and was released from
jail Tuesday. He had surrendered to
authorities in Navasota on Monday,
the day a four-count indictment
against him was unsealed.
The former priest was the focus of
a recent Houston trial concerning a
$7 million lawsuit a former church
secretary filed against the Galveston-
Houston Catholic Diocese.
Debbie McCorvey, who once
worked at the Galena Park Church
where Guzman had been assigned,
claimed Guzman forced her into a
lengthy sexual relationship three
years ago.
She sued the church, claiming it
knew about Guzman’s sexual history
and should have intervened. Last
Friday, a jury ruled in favor of the
diocese.
During the trial, Guzman ad
mitted he had engaged in sex twice
with a 14-year-old girl and said a so
cial worker had caught and stopped
them another time in 1984.
Grimes County District Attorney
David Barron has said he began in
vestigating the case after he read
newspaper accounts about Guzman’s
testimony.
“It was covered up by the church,”
Barron said. “He was transferred
and the church never told anyone
about it.”
Guzman’s attorney, Candelario
Elizondo, contends there may be a
problem with the statute of limita
tions in the case. The statute of limi
tations on sexual assault of a child
was extended in 1987 from five
years to 10, and under the old law
Guzman’s case would not now be
prosecutable.
But Barron said he believes the
new law is retroactive.
