The incident, which took place on a Wednesday, saw the involvement of several emergency response teams, including StarFlight, AirLife, Hays County EMS, Caldwell County EMS, and Buda Fire EMS.
The exact location of the crash is confirmed to be Niederwald, though there is some discrepancy regarding the specific road where the accident occurred. While KEYE and KXAN Austin report that the crash happened on Highway 21, KVUE (Austin) does not specify the highway, leading to a slight inconsistency in the reported details.
Emergency crews were quick to respond to the scene, arriving around 5 p.m. to provide necessary assistance to the injured individuals. As a result of the accident, Highway 21 was temporarily closed in both directions, causing traffic disruptions in the area.
