CONROE, TX – A man was critically injured when he was rear-ended by a driver suspected of being under the influence late last night north of the Conroe area, according to the Montgomery County Police Reporter.
The collision happened at around 10:15 p.m. as the female driver of a 2014 Plymouth Town & Country van was reportedly under the influence and going at a high rate of speed.
