SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio police have reopened the highway following a major crash that closed parts of Loop 410 southbound near Bandera Road on the city’s Northwest Side early Wednesday morning.
The crash happened around 6 a.m.
According to police, the driver of a sport utility vehicle says he was traveling southbound past Bandera Road when a vehicle in front of him suddenly swerved. That’s when, police say, the driver struck a woman who was standing on the highway.
Police said the driver’s SUV was then hit from behind by another vehicle. The driver lost control, went off the highway before finally coming to a rest on the access road.
A KSAT 12 crew at the scene spotted the vehicle that ended up on the southbound access road between Bandera Road and Ingram.
The vehicle that struck the SUV sped off without stopping, police said. That driver has not been found.
The woman who was struck was able to get up and walk, but she did go to a hospital by ambulance to be checked out, police said.
SAPD says they are still advising drivers to avoid the area if possible, as traffic has slowed in the area.
