Houston – Injuries Reported Following a Car Accident on Fondren Road
Posted on Thursday, May 2nd, 2019 at 6:52 am
At least one person sustained injuries when a car slammed into a building near Fondren Road in southwest Houston, Tuesday morning.
According to initial reports, local troopers responded to a collision at the SGT Washateria in the 9900 block of Fondren Road after receiving a crash report at around 11:00 a.m. Police said that a Lincoln sedan suddenly reversed into the laundromat, wounding one woman inside the store. Based on an initial investigation, it seems that the driver accidentally switched the vehicle on the reverse gears, instead of drive, prompting the accident.
The female victim sustained injuries on her leg. She was immediately transported to a nearby hospital where she received medical treatment. Authorities said that her injuries were considered minor.
No words on whether or not the driver will be charged.
Investigation is still in progress.
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.
