CCPD Traffic Officers Investigating Fatal Crash

Corpus Christi Police Traffic Officers were called out to investigate a fatal crash this morning on Padre Island.

Police received a call, at 2:55 AM, from a passing motorist reporting that he saw a truck on its side in the grass in the 14100 block of Whitecap Boulevard.

Officers arrived and found the red 1996 Chevrolet Silverado truck still running and the driver still inside. CCFD EMS arrived and determined that the 39 year old male driver was dead.

Corpus Christi Police Traffic Investigators determined that the truck was traveling east on Whitecap Boulevard and appears to have struck the left curb. The driver overcorrected and then crossed the road before striking the right curb causing the truck to  flip onto its side.  The driver was not wearing a seatbelt.

Eastbound traffic lanes on Whitecap Boulevard were closed for just over two hours while the crash was investigated.

The Nueces County Medical Examiner responded to the scene and took custody of the victim.
