Fatal car accident on 610 North Loop near Ella

A major car accident claimed one life last night. The crash happened around 1:30 am near the exit for Ella Boulevard on the 610 North Loop West, eastbound lanes. Police are saying a gray colored Infinity G35 sedan stalled in the middle of the freeway with no light on and the driver of an approaching black Dodge Charger didn't see the vehicle and crashed into the rear of the Infinity. The impact was apparently so severe the Infinity spun around 180 degrees and was hit again by the Charger, front bumper to front bumper. Tragically the driver of the Infinity, identified as Kyle Webb, died at the scene and a female passenger, identified as Kyle's sister, was transported to the hospital in serious but stable condition. According to one media report, the driver of the Dodge Charger was not injured. Channel 2's report is here. Channel 13's report is here. Houston Chronicle here.
