Today at 1:10 p,m, , Montgomery County Hospital District took multiple 911 calls regarding a two-vehicle collision on FM 1488 just west of FM 149.

Once the fire department arrived, crews were able to better access, and at 1:24 Medic 40 advised they had one patient with injuries incompatible with life. Medic 27 has transported one stable patient to an area hospital.  DPS says the pickup Chevrolet Silverado pickup was westbound just west of the FM 149 overpass. The driver made a u-turn six-lane highway and was t-boned by a dump truck loaded with a rock. The deceased drivers’ wife was transported to Hermann Memorial in stable condition. Crews expect to reopen the road close to 5 pm as they are attempting to load the dump truck.
