Harlingen, TX : 4-car crash causes injuries on Wednesday, 24th August, 2016
Four cars crashed at a busy intersection during rush hour traffic yesterday, causing some injuries.
One driver said a car crossed a lane on 77 Sunshine Strip and crashed into on-coming cars close to the Harrison Avenue intersection.
Earl Kroesen, 40, said he was driving north on 77 Sunshine Strip about 5:45 p.m. and had just crossed the intersection when he saw the car in the wrong lane.
“The car was facing on-coming traffic. I swerved out of the way to avoid getting hit,” said Kroesen, a Harlingen resident.
He said he didn’t know what caused the car to cross the center line.
“You never know the circumstances,” he said.
A police officer at the scene said four cars were involved in the crash and some occupants were taken to a hospital. No other information about the injured was immediately available.
The crash caused a 45-minute traffic jam at the intersection.
