What Happened

Area authorities are investigating a crash that injured a person at US 82 in Wichita County, TX on December 23rd, 2023. Police say the incident happened around 5:30 a.m. Investigators are saying a Chevrolet Silverado operated by 20-year-old Luis Briones Vasquez was westbound on US 82 before leaving the roadway for unclear reasons. Reports indicate the vehicle lost control during attempts to correct back onto the roadway, instead traveling into a center median. From there, police say one of its tires became detached from the vehicle, causing the vehicle to rotate into a road sign and guardrail. The impact caused the vehicle to overturn into a drainage ditch where it came to a stop after striking a barbed wire fence. Police allege Vasquez initially left the scene of the accident on foot, despite suspected serious injuries. There were no other reported injuries, according to reports, and information suggests authorities expressing belief of possible alcohol involvement in the incident.
