Summary

A 23-year-old man slammed into an Austin police car on I-35 early Sunday morning, injuring the officer who was blocking traffic after a big truck crash. The driver, reportedly drunk, admitted to drinking and was arrested on a DWI charge. The officer is okay, and all lanes reopened by 10:45 AM — but this crash is a sobering reminder that helping on the road can come with serious risks if you’re impaired.
