1 dead following 2-vehicle crash in Ideal Farms
IDEAL FARMS, TX – One person died following a two-vehicle crash on Veterans Memorial Dr near Gears Rd on Tuesday, according to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.
Arthur Mouton was driving a white Cadillac Escalade north on Veterans Memorial Dr when he failed to drive in a single lane and struck the front left quarter panel of a maroon Nissan Murano driven by Maria Jimenez around 12:48 p.m.
First responders performed life-saving measures on Mouton and transported him to an area hospital, where he died. It is unclear if Mouton had a medical condition that caused his death or if he died from injuries sustained in the crash.
Crews also took a passenger from the Murano, Maria Ornelas, to an area hospital as a precaution.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office Vehicular Crimes Division is investigating the incident.
