Police said deadly crashes involving pedestrians are all too common in that area. The woman is one of several Houston pedestrians to be hit and killed this month.
HOUSTON, Texas -- A woman died while trying to cross the I-45 North Freeway near Parker Road overnight.It's something a Houston police sergeant told ABC13 is all too common in the area.
"This is a relatively low section of freeway. We have worked multiple fatal crashes here because it's almost at street level. You jump that concrete barricade, and you will be on the main lanes," Sgt. D. Rose said.
The driver who hit the woman stopped at the scene was questioned and released, police said. He showed no signs of intoxication.Less than a week ago, on April 14, another woman died while trying to cross a Houston-area freeway.
