The collision occurred on the Interstate 10 past Vance Jackson Road, as San Antonio Police reported a vehicle was stalled in a lane, creating a dangerous situation for unsuspecting drivers.

Police cleared the scene and traffic slowly returned to its normal frenetic pace. No specifics regarding the identities of the individuals involved or the exact cause of the initial vehicle stall were forthcoming at the moment.
