Three critically injured at I-35, I-37

Three motorists who stopped to change a tire were in critical condition Sunday after an oncoming vehicle spun out of control and struck them, police said.

The accident, which occurred around 1 p.m., forced temporary closure of the exit from Interstate 35 South to Interstate 37 South as officers investigated the incident.

A Chevy Tahoe, driven by a 56-year-old woman, had parked along the exit shoulder because one of its tires had blown out, said San Antonio Police Sgt. Michael Brown. Two men driving a red Ford Explorer stopped to assist the woman.

As all three stood behind the Tahoe, a green Honda Civic came around the curve in the road and somehow lost control, striking guardrails on both sides of the exit ramp.

The Civic then spun around, striking the three motorists and slamming into the rear of the Tahoe with its back bumper, Brown said.
