San Antonio, TX — December 12, 2023, two people were injured in a truck accident at approximately 5:30 p.m. along Interstate Highway 10.

There was reportedly a trailer in tow behind the Silverado. Officials indicate that, for unknown reasons, the Chevy attempted a lane change from the far-left lane to the middle lane at an unsafe time.

A 40-year-old man who had been a passenger in the Silverado also sustained suspected minor injuries. There are not currently any additional details available pertaining to this incident; the investigation is ongoing.
