1 killed in car vs. semi crash at Parker and Elaine

WYLIE, TX – One person sustained fatal injuries last Wednesday in a major accident involving a sedan and an 18-wheeler in Wylie, reports WFAA News 8.

Emergency teams reported to Parker Road and Elaine Drive shortly after 6:30 a.m. This is just northwest of Kingsbridge Park on the northwest side of the city.

Police aren’t yet certain what caused the crash, which they say caused a Volkswagen Jetta to become stuck beneath the rear of the semi-truck.

Authorities declared the driver of the Jetta deceased at the scene. They’ve not yet disclosed the name of the victim.

No other injuries have been referenced in connection to the collision.

A full investigation is underway.
