Two people were hurt, one of them critically, in an early-morning crash near I-480 in Omaha on Saturday. First responders rushed to the area of 30th Street and St. Mary's Avenue around 2:30 a.m., and both victims were taken to the hospital with injuries.
According to KETV, police dispatch confirmed that two people were transported for treatment following the crash. One of them suffered critical injuries, while the other was described as seriously hurt, the station reported.
Details Remain Limited as Morning Commute Begins
Beyond the location and timing of the crash, few other details have been released. No information has been made public about the vehicles involved, the number of cars in the crash, or what caused it.
The crash near 30th and St. Mary's Avenue is a separate incident from an earlier Omaha crash reported by WOWT, which happened near 24th Street and St. Mary's Avenue, not far from the now-closed City View Apartments, shortly after 4 a.m. on a Sunday. In that earlier case, the station reported that two people were also hospitalized, though city officials said those injuries were not considered life-threatening, and the cause of that crash and who was at fault were never determined.
Investigation Continues
No further updates on the condition of the two people hurt Saturday near I-480 have been released. This is a developing story, and Hoodline will update it as more information becomes available.
