One Person Killed in an Accident Involving a Pickup and Semitruck on Interstate 10 East at Waco Street in Houston, Texas


HOUSTON, Texas – A deadly collision involving a semi-truck and a pickup happened eastbound of I-10 East at Waco Street Thursday morning, according to the Houston Police Department.

Authorities say at least one person was killed in the incident.

No further information is currently available.

The surviving family deserves answers

Each year, an estimated 4,000 to 5,000 people lose their lives in collisions involving commercial trucks, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).  Most of these fatal incidents are preventable.

When someone loses their life in such a tragic manner, their family deserves answers. The deceased’s family has the right to know what caused this accident and all factors that contributed to the fatal outcome. Only a thorough investigation beyond the police report can help determine whether wrongdoing or negligence contributed to this outcome.

We hope the surviving family here receives the answers they rightfully deserve.
