Harris County, TX – Two fatal crashes overnight have prompted major responses from the Harris County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO), including one that shut down lanes on I-45 North near Spring.
According to Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, deputies are investigating two separate deadly incidents:
The first occurred along the southbound main lanes of I-45 between SH-99 and Spring Cypress Road, where at least one person has been confirmed deceased. The crash caused significant delays through the early morning hours, with traffic cameras showing heavy congestion near Spring Stuebner Road.
In a second, unrelated crash, a motorcycle rider was killed at 1601 S. Main Street (FM-2100). Sheriff Gonzalez said the rider was pronounced dead at the scene.
As of early Friday, HCSO units and investigators remain on both scenes, urging motorists to reduce speed and exercise caution while traveling through the affected areas.
