Head on car accident on Boudreaux leaves one driver dead

A man was killed and his wife hurt in a head-on car accident last night on Boudreaux close to FM 2920. Investigators with Harris County Sheriff’s Office say a man driving a Jeep Cherokee veered into oncoming traffic and hit a Chrysler 300 sedan head-on. The man driving the Jeep was pronounced dead at the scene and his wife was taken to the hospital in stable condition. The family of four in the Chrysler 300 were also injured and taken to the hospital. Authorities say the Chrysler driver took evasive action when the Jeep entered his lane by swerving into oncoming traffic where the Jeep should have been, but the Jeep swerved back into its own lane and the vehicles crashed. Channel 11’s coverage.
