METRO police officer hurt in car accident at Hamilton and Gray in Houston
A METRO police officer was injured in a car accident at 5:30 this morning near the intersection of Hamilton Street and Gray Street near downtown Houston. Houston police say a driver who ran a red light struck the officer’s vehicle. The officer was transported to an area hospital with non life threatening injuries, Channel 2 reports. The other driver wasn’t hurt. Channel 11’s story on the accident says the officer was in uniform but driving a private vehicle. Interestingly it appears the other driver, who was on his way to work at the post office, told Channel 11 he “may have just not noticed the light.”
