Commuters in Houston were hit with significant delays this morning following a tragic incident on the I-10 Katy Freeway. At approximately 7:35 a.m., all westbound lanes at Hogan St. were shut down after a man reportedly jumped onto a vehicle from an overpass. Click2Houston reported the freeway has since been reopened but cautioned drivers about possible residual delays.
The event caused major traffic jams, with Houston TranStar cameras showing the buildup. Although the road reopened around 9:45 a.m., law enforcement had already secured the area and began investigating the man’s fatal fall from the overpass. Witnesses say he jumped intentionally. The Houston Police Department is still working to understand the events leading up to the tragedy, as outlined in the coverage from abc13.
The man, whose identity has not yet been released, was pronounced dead at the scene. Motorists are advised to use caution in the area as Houston TranStar continues to monitor and manage the aftermath of the disruption.
