AUSTIN, Texas \u2014 Part of an East Austin roadway is closed early Friday morning after two people were injured in a crash.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to Austin police, a driver flipped their vehicle at around 1:30 a.m. along Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Alexander Avenue. Law enforcement said the vehicle rolled over, damaging a bus stop and a light pole.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Two people were inside the vehicle at the time of the collision, and both were taken to a hospital. One person is suffering from severe injuries, and neither has been identified.<\/p>\n
No one has been charged at this time, and it’s unclear what led up to the crash.\u00a0<\/p>\n
