The Harris County police officials have yet to release more details about a vehicle collision on Knebel Road which resulted in several injuries, according to a local news source.
Just before 4:00 a.m., local troopers were dispatched at the intersection of Knebel and Stokes near the Waller County line. A preliminary investigation indicates that a pickup truck was heading east on Knebel when, for reasons that had not been determined, its driver went pass through the red signal and crashed into a ditch. The impact of the crash ejected a 12-year-old girl from the vehicle. She was recovered from the water and immediately rushed to an area hospital for treatment.
Meanwhile, two occupants, identified as 15 and 16-year-olds, were transported to a medical center via Life Flight, while two adults, ages 20 and 24, were transported via an ambulance. The extent of their injuries was not immediately disclosed.
Authorities said that the girl was not properly restrained.
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 Harris County 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.
