San Antonio, TX — There was a fatal accident along Loop 1604 earlier this morning (Friday, January 9, 2015) that claimed the life of a young man. Not many details were released, but it appears that this may have arisen from a racing incident.
Allegedly, two cars were driving along Loop 1604 at a high rate of speed near Braun Road at about 2:00 a.m. this morning. As they neared Braun Road, they came upon an 18-wheeler truck. As they split around the truck to pass it, one of the cars lost control and spun off the highway.
The car then crashed into a nearby utility pole, cutting it in half. The driver, a man in his twenties, was killed immediately and the second driver attempted to flee the scene — though he was soon arrested. More details will be released later after some more investigation is done. No names are being released right now.
