Multi-Vehicle Crash on Interstate 27 Injures 2 People

Wrong-Way Crash on I-27 in Lubbock Leaves at Least Two Seriously Injured

Lubbock, TX (July 24, 2026) — On Thursday evening, at least two people suffered serious injuries in a large multi-vehicle crash on Interstate 27 near 66th Street in Lubbock.

Police said officers responded to the scene around 7:23 p.m. after receiving reports of a crash with injuries. Preliminary findings indicate that a driver was traveling south in the northbound lanes of I-27 when the vehicle collided with two other vehicles near the 6500 block of the interstate.

The crash forced authorities to close the northbound lanes beginning at 82nd Street, along with the eastbound flyover connecting to northbound I-27. Motorists were urged to avoid the area while emergency crews responded and investigators examined the scene.

The investigation into the collision remains ongoing.

Defensive driving is one of the most effective ways to reduce the risk of multi-vehicle accidents. Staying alert, following traffic laws, and anticipating the actions of other drivers can make a significant difference on the road.

Just as important, keeping your vehicle in top condition helps ensure everyone’s safety. Make it a habit to check your tires, brakes, mirrors, oil, brake fluid, and air filters regularly. A well-maintained car not only prevents breakdowns but can also save lives.

Let’s all do our part to prevent incidents.

Wrong-way crashes often result in severe injuries due to the force of impact. Drivers should stay alert, watch for roadway signs, and immediately report any suspected wrong-way driver to authorities. If you or a loved one has been injured in a collision caused by another driver’s negligence, understanding your legal options may help you recover the compensation you deserve.
