Posted on Tuesday, April 23rd, 2019 at 6:18 am
At least two people were seriously injured after a vehicle collision on Interstate 10, just west of Luling.
According to initial reports, the accident took place at around 2 p.m. on Interstate 10 near the 625 mile marker. An 18-wheeler truck was traveling along the eastbound lanes of the highway when it crashed into another vehicle while approaching a slow-moving traffic. The impact of the collision prompted a chain-reaction collision leaving the cab of the truck on fire.
Authorities said that two people sustained injuries from the collision. A helicopter flew one patient to San Antonio Military Medical Center and another took a patient to Seton Medical Center Hays. The extent of their injuries was not immediately released.
Troopers with the Texas Department of Public Safety arrived at the scene to clear the site.
An investigation is underway.
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 Houston 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.
