San Antonio, TX (April 14, 2024) – A motor vehicle accident reported on Friday afternoon in the San Antonio area ended in injuries. The collision took place at around 10:20 p.m. on April 12.
According to law enforcement reports, a gray Toyota Matrix was heading northbound on Interstate 35 during the evening hours. For reasons unknown, the vehicle collided with the center median near Southcross Boulevard. The driver of the vehicle exited and fled the scene on foot. The disabled matrix was left in the middle of the road. A tour bus was traveling northbound at the same time when the driver swerved to avoid striking the vehicle. As a result, the bus collided with a white Chevrolet Silverado and a white Toyota Corolla. The impact of the crash caused the Silverado driver to lose control and strike the right wall before overturning. A 26-year-old female passenger was severely injured in the crash and rushed to an area hospital for medical care. The driver of the matrix, 30-year-old Eric Perez, was later apprehended and faces charges of intoxication assault and failure to stop and render aid. At this time, the incident is being investigated.
We hope the injured woman recovers quickly.
