San Antonio, TX (December 6, 2021) – One woman has lost her life as a result of a pedestrian accident in the San Antonio area on Thursday evening. At around 9 p.m., on December 2, the San Antonio Police Department was notified that their assistance was needed on-site at a motor vehicle accident on Castroville Road.
Reports from authorities show that a female pedestrian was traveling in the area of Castroville Road and South General McMullen Road. As she attempted to cross the roadway, she was struck by a caravan. The woman was then dragged for some distance before the elderly driver’s vehicle came to a halt.
The pedestrian sustained severe injuries in the accident. Authorities arrived at the scene and pronounced her deceased.
At this time, the incident remains under investigation.
We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the woman who lost her life in this accident. Our thoughts are with them at this time.
Fatal Pedestrian Accidents in Texas
Each year, pedestrian crashes in Texas claim the lives of more than 700 people. These accidents often occur as a result of driver negligence. We see far too many innocent parties lose their lives in accidents due to drivers who are distracted, impaired, or engaging in otherwise reckless actions while operating their vehicles. Losing a loved one in an accident can have a devastating impact on surviving family members.
After enduring the loss of a loved one, most families struggle to move forward. Overcoming the mental and emotional pain and suffering seem nearly impossible.
