San Antonio, TX (November 30, 2021) – A man who was injured in a motor vehicle accident early Sunday morning on the West Side of San Antonio has died. At around 2:47 a.m., on November 28, calls for assistance came in surrounding an auto accident on Culebra Road.

Reports from authorities show that an adult male pedestrian was struck by a vehicle in the 7400 block of Culebra Road. The incident prompted the closure of the roadway between Potranco Road and Ingram Road as crews worked to clear the scene.

The injured man was rushed to University Hospital with critical injuries. Authorities confirm that the man later passed away from his injuries.

At this time, the incident remains under investigation.

We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the man who lost his 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.

If your loved one has lost their life in an accident, you will most likely face towering financial consequences. Covering medical expenses and funeral costs are tasks made even more challenging by the fact that your family may have lost a source of income they have grown to depend on.
