1 Dead in Houston Auto Accident on Interstate Highway 610 North Loop

HOUSTON, TX (May 9, 2024) – Wednesday afternoon, a devastating 18-wheeler crash on Interstate Highway 610 North Loop killed 1 person.

The crash happened at about 3:12 p.m. on Interstate Highway 610 North Loop at Homestead.

A semi-tractor trailer transporting a bulldozer was traveling westbound on North Loop when it collided with a Mazda, causing the Mazda to veer off the road and strike a barricade.

Then, the bulldozer became detached from the trailer and fell onto the eastbound lanes, striking two vehicles traveling in that direction. As a result, several individuals were transported to the hospital, and unfortunately, one person succumbed to their injuries.

Preliminary investigations suggest that the initial collision may have been caused by an unsafe lane change by the Mazda driver. Additionally, the crash resulted in the spillage of fuel onto the main lanes of the freeway.

While two westbound lanes are open in the area, all eastbound lanes remain closed as officials work to restore the barrier. Drivers are advised to avoid the area due to significant traffic congestion.

At this time, the circumstances that led to the crash remained unclear. Once additional details become available, the public will be notified.

Due to the limited information available, the authorities continued to investigate the crash.


Sweet Lawyers extends our condolences to the family and community of the victim.
