The Harris County Precinct 4 Constable's Office says a driver slammed into the back of an 18-wheeler stopped at a red light on the Beltway 8 feeder westbound at T.C. Jester.
Two people had to be cut out of the car, including a man who died at the hospital. There's no word on the condition of the other person.
The lanes of the westbound feeder were blocked, but reopened shortly after 5 a.m.
