Carrollton – Several Injured on Dallas North Tollway

At least 11 people were reportedly injured after a two-vehicle collision on Dallas Parkway in North Dallas, early Monday morning.

At around 1:15 a.m., Carrollton police officers spotted a Cadillac Escalade and asked the driver to pull over. Instead of stopping, the vehicle sped off which prompted a pursuit. As the Escalade entered an intersection near LBJ service road, it then collided with a black Lexus SUV. Nine occupants inside the Escalade were all transported to nearby hospitals for medical evaluation. Authorities said that there were 5 males and 4 females onboard the vehicle.

A man and a woman inside the Lexus were also taken to a hospital where they were listed in serious condition. Fortunately, their injuries were not considered life-threatening.

Local investigators arrived at the scene to determine liability. The crash remains under investigation.

We would like to express our deepest sympathies to the friends and families of the injured victims. We pray for their full recovery as we hope that the Carrollton Police Department will do everything to bring those responsible to justice.

Injuries caused by vehicle collisions can vary from crash to crash. Some injuries may heal within a span of days while others could paralyze a victim’s body for a month. The most commonly known car accident injuries include neck and chest and head and back injuries. Broken and ligament damages are also quite common.

Sometimes, a car accident can cause serious injuries to multiple parties—and filing a claim can get complicated. To make sure your claim is successful, you need to gather supporting evidence and documents that can back up your claim. It could be a detailed account of the accident you are involved in or documents indicating the extent of injuries you sustained. These may include a video or photograph of the scene, police reports, and medical records, to name a few.
