Three DPD officers were sent to the hospital after they were involved in two differnt traffic accidents early Friday morning.
The first accident occurred around 2:00 am in the east-bound lanes of LBJ Freeway after a vehicle lost control and hit the center lane barrier. Two police squad cars were parked on the highway working the accident when an 18-wheeler jack-knifed into the vehicles. Two officers were transported to Parkland Hospital with unknown injuries.
Within an hour, a second similar accident occurred when another DPD vehicle was rear-ended by a car that was unable to stop on the slick road. The impact caused the squad car's gasoline tank to rupture, closing the freeway for HAZMAT clean up. One officer was taken to Parkland hospital for observation and the driver of the vehicle was uninjured.
