HOUSTON — Harris County Sheriff's Office is investigating the death of a man who crashed his vehicle into a metal pole early Saturday in north Houston.
The incident happened at the intersection of FM 1960 and Kuykendahl Road at 4:56 a.m. Investigators said no other vehicles were involved, and it's unclear what caused the driver to veer off the road.
"We're still investigating all the circumstances of the actual crash itself in order to determine if speed was a factor, if any sort of medical conditions were a factor or any alcohol or anything might have been related to the crash," HCSO Sgt. G. Guien said.
The victim's identity has not been released.
All westbound lanes of the FM 1960 near the crash were shut down for several hours as deputies investigated.
"This is a large intersection and we have quite a bit of information to gather from the scene," Guien said. "We're going to do our do diligence to make sure we investigate this crash appropriately."
