Conroe is a microcosm of the greater Texas area - and the U.S.A. at large. By that I mean that accidents happen on a regular basis, and they are no different in nature, cause and result than those across the country. Let us consider some of the accidents that occurred in Conroe over the last month.
At the beginning of September reports indicate a 56-year-old man left the scene of an accident and was later apprehended. It turned out he was alleged to have been driving while intoxicated. Charges are pending.
Several days later, it was reported that on September 12th at 1 a.m. an Explorer carrying middle aged couple left the roadway and struck 2 trees before coming to a stop. It took an hour and a half to cut them out of the vehicle. They were transported in critical condition to a nearby hospital.
Meanwhile two days later, the tractor of a 77-year-old farmer who was plowing stopped midfield. The farmer used jumper cables attached to a second vehicle to restart the tractor, however, he had apparently forgotten to put the tractor in park when it died so as the engine came to life it rolled over him. Despite the best efforts of emergency medical personnel, he expired.
Meanwhile, more accidents occurred over the next couple days.
One from a 26 year old female who was suspected of a DUI and the gentlemen involved in the Sept. 12th accident sadly died as a result of his injuries.
The citizens of Conroe rounded out the month with another DUI arrest of a 65 year old man who had passed out behind the wheel while sitting in a traffic jam.
