HARRIS COUNTY, TX — Authorities have identified victims and released more details following a fatal two-vehicle crash Thursday morning near northwest Houston, according to a Harris County Sheriff’s Office press release.

The collision took place in the 2900 block of West Mount Houston Road (Texas State Highway 249/Tomball Parkway) at around 7:00 a.m. HCSO deputies were dispatched to the scene shortly after.
