KPD Investigates Crash on IH-14

Killeen Police investigate a late night crash on Interstate Highway 14.

Officers responded to IH-14 at 9:14 p.m. on Sunday, September 17, 2017 after receiving a 911 call telling them of a rollover crash.  Upon the officers’ arrival they located a red Nissan Pathfinder on its left side.

The preliminary investigation revealed that the Pathfinder was traveling eastbound on IH-14 at a high rate of speed, struck a silver Hyundai sedan and the driver lost control of the vehicle.   As he lost control, he struck the concrete center divider, causing the SUV to rollover and land on its left side. The driver was transported to Seton Medical Center Harker Heights and subsequently airlifted to Baylor Scott and White in critical condition. The driver was not wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash.  The occupants of the Hyundai reported no injuries.

The Killeen Police Department Traffic Unit continues to investigate this crash and information will be released as it becomes available.
