Two individuals, a woman and a minor, were hospitalized following a collision involving a Houston Metro Police Department (MPD) patrol vehicle last night. The incident occurred in the 3400 block of Navigation Boulevard at York Street when the patrol unit, responding with lights and sirens to assist with traffic at an unrelated event, struck a westbound civilian car, according to FOX 26 Houston.
The impact of the crash resulted in the female driver being ejected from her vehicle, causing potential life-threatening injuries, and a girl as a passenger who suffered non-life-threatening injuries. Although both were transported to the hospital for further treatment, the MPD confirmed in statements obtained by both FOX 26 Houston and ABC13. Additionally, the investigation into the crash remains active with efforts to uncover further details, while the identities of the injured parties have not been released to public knowledge as of now.
ABC13 has provided scant details as the investigation of the crash is ongoing, mentioning the incident having taken place just before 6:10 p.m. and urging viewers to watch live breaking news coverage on their 24/7 streaming news channel, where updates may be presented as new information arises.
