This morning, Jan. 9, at approximately 5:45 am Howe Police Officers responded to a report of a multi-vehicle accident on US Hwy 75 north, just south of the Haning overpass. A pick up towing a flatbed trailer was traveling in the right lane when an SUV hit the trailer from behind.
Passengers in the SUV had to be extricated from the vehicle by Van Alstyne Fire and EMS. Both the driver and the passenger of the SUV were transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The driver of the pickup and trailer was not injured. The dense fog contributed to the lack of visibility on the highway.
