Argument, high-speed chase lead to Houston hit-and-run car crash

A Houston area celebration turned ugly when revelers got into a fight that ultimately led to a serious traffic crash in the southeast part of the city.  According to police, several individuals became involved in an argument before leaving a party around one o’clock in the morning.

One of the couples involved in the argument left the hotel in their car near the intersection of Bay Ara Boulevard and Interstate 45 where the party took place.  They were followed, say investigators, by a man in his car who had also been involved in the fight.

The man followed the couple onto Bay Area Boulevard, and gave chase.  The two vehicles reached speeds of up to 100 miles per hour.  According to reports from the incident the man following the couple drove his car into the back of the other vehicle, causing that vehicle’s driver to lose control.

The car that was hit veered off the road, ran over several curbs, hit a utility box and several trees.  After rolling over multiple times the vehicle came to a stop.  The driver of the car that hit the crashed vehicle did not stop, and instead sped away from the scene.  Charges are pending against the driver who fled.

Both occupants of the crashed car were in stable condition after the accident.  The driver of the car was taken to Clear Lake Regional Medical Center while his female passenger was taken to Memorial Hermann Southeast Hospital.
