One person was killed after a car flipped into a retention pond in the Spring area on Sunday afternoon, according to FOX 26 Houston. The station carried the crash among its morning headlines as the investigation continued into Monday.
The crash happened about 2:45 in the afternoon, according to the report. It unfolded over the course of a hot summer Sunday in the community north of Houston.
The location was North Quest Drive near State Highway 99 in Gosling, the station said. Images from the scene showed the aftermath at the water's edge.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office confirmed that one person was killed, according to FOX 26 Houston. No identity for the person who died was provided in the report.
Authorities said the driver was able to make it out of the car safely, the station reported. That detail left open questions about who else may have been inside the vehicle.
It was still unclear how many people were in the car when the crash happened, according to the report. Investigators had not said what led to the crash.
There was no word yet on whether any charges would be filed, FOX 26 Houston said. The station framed the incident as one it was continuing to follow as more information became available.
