“ADAM” District
Date: 04/14/2015       3:15 PM
Location: 5200 Interstate Highway 37
Offense: Crash
Case Number: C1501562
Corpus Christi Police responded to a crash after a  26 year old male cab driver traveling east on Interstate 37 clipped the back of a large 70,000 pound pump truck causing the commercial truck driver to lose control.

The pump truck slid on its side before it struck the center concrete median.​  The truck came to rest between both sides of the concrete median.

Neither the cab driver, nor the 50 year old male truck driver were injured in the crash.

Both north and south lanes of Interstate 37 were completely shut down for several hours. Texas Department of Transportation personnel were able to bring out cones and directional trucks to aid with traffic control.

As a result of the freeway being closed officers worked many other crashes in that area as traffic began to build. A large crane was requested in order to try and lift the pump truck off the median.

The cab driver was cited for failure to drive in a single lane.
