A man was killed just after his birthday in Spring when he crashed his pickup truck into a garbage truck. The 27-year-old man, whose name has not been released, was headed westbound on Spring Cypress Road when the auto accident happened.
The accident occurred about 3am. According to investigators the man was traveling at a high rate of speed when he crashed into the garbage truck. At the time of the crash the garbage truck was blocking the westbound lanes of Spring Cypress Road because it was parked at an angle.
After the crash the pickup truck driver was taken to Houston Northwest Medical Center to be treated for his injuries, however he later died. The operator of the garbage truck may face charges from the Harris County District Attorney’s Office as a result of the accident, but so far no charges have been filed.
An autopsy will be performed on the pickup truck driver to determine if he was under the influence of drugs or alcohol when the accident happened. Investigators noted that he did try to stop when he saw the garbage truck blocking his way, as there were skid marks on the road.
