TEXAS — One person was hospitalized after a road rage incident led to a multi-vehicle crash involving an 18-wheeler early Wednesday morning, according to the Boerne Police Department.

The crash occurred just before 7:20 a.m. on Interstate 10 westbound near the Main Street exit.

Police said a woman driving a white Mercedes sedan was speeding and driving aggressively, prompting another driver to respond in a hostile manner. The two drivers reportedly exchanged hand gestures before the second driver lost control of their vehicle and crashed into another car.

One of the vehicles then struck a center barrier. A fourth vehicle and an 18-wheeler were also involved in the incident.

Authorities said five vehicles in total were involved, though four sustained contact damage.

One person was transported to a local hospital for treatment. Officials did not release information about the extent of injuries.

The roadway was temporarily closed but reopened shortly after 8 a.m. The incident remains under investigation.
