Houston police said the driver (for unspecified reasons) left the roadway before crashing into a tree in the median, causing it to catch fire and killing both occupants inside.

Two separate deadly crashes on the 610 West Loop on Wednesday have caused a major shutdown for drivers in the Beechnut/Braeswood area.

Houston police say students were onboard the bus, but it was unclear during the initial investigation if anyone was injured.

Two people were killed late Thursday when a pickup truck driver ran a red light, crashing into another vehicle in northwest Houston, according to Houston police.
