November 11, 2024 – Two Houston Police officers were injured in a crash that occurred following a pursuit of a white Suburban that began in the Greenspoint Mall parking lot overnight.
The incident started around 9:06 p.m. when officers observed several vehicles driving recklessly in the parking area of Greenspoint Mall. After they activated their emergency equipment, a white Suburban was spotted driving recklessly, narrowly missing two other vehicles as it exited the lot and continued driving the wrong-way, and ran multiple red lights.
Officers attempted to pursue the vehicle, but their patrol car bottomed out in the 11800 block of Greenspoint Rd, causing them to lose control. The vehicle then struck a water main, collided with a concrete barrier, and flipped into a ditch near the initial location. Both male officers involved were transported to a hospital with injuries but are expected to recover.
Anyone with information on other vehicles involved in the incident is encouraged to contact the Houston Police Department’s Vehicle Crimes Division at (713) 247-4074.
