For Immediate Release:

Manor, TX - On August 29th, 2026 at approximately 2:58pm, officers with Manor Police Department, as well as ATCEMS and TCESD-12 responded to E US 290 HWY WB at Old Kimbro Rd in reference to a two vehicle collision.

Numerous callers advised of a collision involving an 18-wheeler and a sedan. Additional callers advised there were injured occupants and possibly fatalities. Officers and responders arrived on scene and began evaluating all involved occupants.

Tragically, two adult occupants of the sedan, a male and female, were pronounced deceased on scene. A pediatric male patient in the sedan was transported to an area hospital by STAR Flight with significant injuries.

The driver of the 18-wheeler was uninjured and remained on scene to cooperate with the investigation. A preliminary investigation indicates the 18-wheeler was traveling westbound on US 290 and ran a red light, striking the passenger side of the blue sedan, which was turning northbound onto Old Kimbro Rd from E US 290 HWY EB.

Identification of the occupants are not being released at this time.

Manor PD extends its condolences to the family and friends of those who passed away in this tragic incident. We also would like to thank our partners with TCESD-12, ATCEMS, AFD, TCSO, and DPS for their assistance.

As Memorial Day travel ramps up, DPS increases patrols from May 11–25, as part of the All-American Enforcement Campaign and Operation CARE.

The focus is simple: buckle up, put the phone down and drive responsibly. Seat belts save lives, and distracted driving puts everyone at risk. Drivers are also reminded to follow Texas’ Move Over, Slow Down law to protect first responders and roadside workers.

Make smart choices behind the wheel — your safety and the safety of others depend on it.

Dear public motorist
When your calling for a tow truck because your vehicle has broken down take this into consideration.

You may not like prices from certain tow companies but just know you get what you pay for. Cheaper is not always better and proper equipment is required with the right insurance. If you don't take this into consideration when getting a quote or choosing a tow company for your vehicle, understand your putting yourself and your vehicle at risk.
