HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Two people remain hospitalized in critical condition after a man drove an 18-wheeler truck into a Department of Public Safety Driver's License Office in Brenham on Friday.



Bobby Huff died in that crash, and his wife said the 78-year-old drove 34 miles to Brenham from Giddings to renew his license.



According to the DPS, six people were rushed to area hospitals.



The big rig driver, identified as 42-year-old Clenard Parker, remains in jail on a $2 million bond.
