San Antonio police are investigating after two people were killed in a crash on Southeast Loop 410 on the South Side.
The crash happened just before 2 p.m. Friday. According to police, two people in the same vehicle were traveling east on Southeast Loop 410 approaching Moursund Boulevard.
Construction work ahead of the vehicle caused the two-lane roadway to be reduced down to one lane, police said. As the vehicle began to slow for traffic ahead, the two people were struck from behind by a 2014 Chevy Silverado, police said.
The victims’ vehicle drove into a grassy area, striking a guardrail before being going back onto the main lanes, police said. The Chevy Silverado rolled onto its side and slid across the main lanes.
The victims, a woman in her 50s and a male, were pronounced dead at the scene, police said. They have not been identified as of Saturday morning.
The driver of the Silverado, a 22-year-old man, suffered minor injuries and was hospitalized as a precaution, police said.
The eastbound lanes were closed on Southeast Loop 410 for nearly three hours due to the crash.
Additional information was not immediately available. The investigation remains ongoing.
