Debris Causes Three-Car Crash Close to Houston Harte

 

At about 2:30 p.m. this afternoon, a three-car crash in the unit block of West 6th Street left two people injured.

San Angelo Police Department Officer Brian Bylsma said a Dodge Ram traveling eastbound on 6th Street, just coming off the ramp from loop 306, was unable to stop and slammed into the rear of a Cadillac, which, in turn, caused the Cadillac to collide with a Chevy Impala stopped at the light.

The driver of the Dodge Ram claimed that debris from the cab of his truck got under his brake pedal and prevented him from stopping.
