An early morning accident involving several vehicles and at least one death in blocking several southbound lanes of US 59 this morning. Last night's severe thunderstorms in the Houston area may have been a factor, but Channel 13's article doesn't state a cause for the wreck.
Update: Channel 11 is reporting that this was a wrong way accident. The accident happened near the George R. Brown convention center when a pickup truck entered the Eastex Freeway heading the wrong way and hit a car head-on, after which a third car hit both those vehicles. The driver of the wrong-way pickup truck, a woman, was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver hit head-on was in critical condition.
Update: this report from KHOU says a woman driving a black Infiniti car was the driver who entered the southbound lanes traveling the wrong way, before colliding with the black GMC pickup below, killing the woman driving the pickup truck. The third vehicle reported to be involved is a gray Ford Taurus, occupied by two men who were taken to St. Joseph's emergency room. Police will try to determine whether alcohol was a factor in the crash.
