Man Killed, Two Injured in San Antonio Car Crash on Commercial Avenue

San Antonio, Texas (February 9, 2021) – A man was killed and two others were injured in a racing-related crash on Monday in San Antonio’s South Side, according to police.

The fatal crash happened on February 8, in the 2400 block of Commercial Avenue near Sharmain Place and Sunglo Drive.

Police said an older-looking truck was racing a red sedan northbound on Commercial Avenue at high speed when the older truck hit a patch of water on the road, lost control, and hit a southbound truck.

The driver of the older truck, an 18-year-old man, was taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries. His passenger was pronounced dead at the scene.

The other truck driver, a man in his 50s, was also taken to the hospital for treatment.

The police are investigating the crash.

“When a person has suffered a grave personal injury in an accident due to someone else’s negligence, the most overwhelming emotion they feel is a sense of injustice. They often ask how such a life-altering event could have happened to them,” attorney Joel A. Gordon said. “The next question usually is, who can help me?” Mr. Gordon added.

A legal advocate can represent an injury victim or the family of a deceased victim. The attorney will file a claim on behalf of the victim and will have the responsibility of citing existing codes, laws, or statutes which were violated.
