Posted on Thursday, March 7th, 2019 at 12:11 am
A wreck involving two vehicles sent at least two people to a local hospital, Monday night.
Just after 7:00 p.m., the Waco Fire Department was dispatched to the access of road of I-35 southbound near Irving Lee Street after receiving a call reporting a car accident. According to initial reports, two vehicles somehow collided, hitting a power pole in the process. The impact of the crash was so great that fire crews had to extricate one person inside the wreckage. Due to the damaged pole, nearly 350 houses were left without electricity.
Authorities said that two people were rushed to the nearest hospital for treatment. They did not specify whether they were both drivers or passengers in the involved vehicles.
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 Waco 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.
