AUSTIN (KXAN) — Austin-Travis County EMS personnel says two people were killed after a crash with an 18-wheeler Tuesday on Farm to Market Road 1826.
Medics initially tweeted about the crash at 11:29 a.m., and they said STARFlight was dispatched to the scene to transport patients. Initial reports said medics thought two people were pinned inside a vehicle, and then they confirmed one patient was pinned and another was found without a pulse.
One patient was pronounced dead at the scene, and medics attempted life-saving measures on the other patient, but those were not successful, the final update from medics said.
The crash occurred in the 12000 block of FM 1826, near the intersection with State Highway 45 and just east of Grey Rock Golf and Tennis Club southwest of Austin near the Hays County line.
The Oak Hill and Austin fire departments both responded to the scene. The Travis County Sheriff’s Office says all lanes of FM 1826 are closed due to the crash.
