ROSENBERG, Texas (AP) — A Texas police chief said Tuesday that wet roads and speed factored into the driver of an SUV plowing into a Denny's restaurant outside Houston on Labor Day, injuring nearly two dozen people inside.
No charges against the driver have been filed but the crash remains under investigation, Rosenberg Police Chief Jonathan White said.
Video of the aftermath showed a red vehicle fully inside the restaurant, with the wall and windows around it demolished.
White said the traffic investigators are considering all factors, including the speed the vehicle was going and “freshly wet road” conditions.
