A female motorist told investigators the two victims were in a black Lexus 350 that rear-ended her vehicle in the Harris County limits and then attempted to flee the scene. The female called 9-1-1 and was on the phone with a Harris County dispatcher as she followed the Lexus to the area of the Northwest Freeway (U.S. Highway 290) and Fairbanks North Houston. The female stated the Lexus continued traveling until she observed the vehicle roll over and crash at the above address on Tanner.
The male and female inside the Lexus were ejected from the vehicle and were pronounced deceased at the scene. It is believed the male was the driver.
The investigation into the incident is continuing.
