HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) — Deputies need help searching for suspects involved in a crash that left a woman dead in northeast Harris County Saturday night.
According to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to a two-vehicle crash at 711 Beaumont Highway near San Jacinto River at about 7:35 p.m.
A witness told HCSO officials a Dodge Ram pickup truck attempted to pass them on the two-lane highway and crashed into an oncoming Toyota Corolla in the opposite lane.
That section of the roadway is divided by dual-color sided lines, indicating it’s a no-passing zone, Sgt. B. Beaty with HCSO said.
The woman in the Toyota was found with no signs of life, according to deputies.
