Tyler, TX (July 26, 2025) – One person was hurt Friday morning after a hit-and-run crash occurred along the 2900 block of Robertson Road in Tyler.
According to case details filed under number 25010625, the crash happened at approximately 7:13 a.m. on July 25. A vehicle involved in the crash left the scene before officers arrived. Emergency crews responded shortly after and discovered that at least one person had sustained injuries.
That individual was treated at the scene and transported to a nearby hospital for further care. Their current condition has not been released, but no additional injuries have been reported at this time. The Tyler Police Department is leading the investigation. Officers are currently working to identify the driver who fled the scene and are asking anyone with information or surveillance footage from the area to come forward. Investigators are expected to release additional updates as the search for the fleeing motorist continues.
We hope the person injured in this crash makes a full recovery.
Car Accidents in Texas
Each year, thousands of Texans suffer injuries in car accidents, with many incidents involving hit-and-run drivers. The Texas Department of Transportation reports over 60,000 hit-and-run crashes statewide in 2023 alone. These cases often leave victims frustrated and struggling, especially when they are hurt and the responsible party cannot be immediately located.
Below is a closer look at why these incidents can be so difficult for victims:
- Uninsured Motorist Claims: In many cases, the only option for financial relief is through a victim’s own uninsured motorist policy. However, not all drivers carry this coverage, and even when they do, getting a fair settlement may require legal support.
- Difficulty Identifying the Driver: Unless there are witnesses or clear surveillance footage, tracking down a hit-and-run suspect can take time—or may never be resolved. This adds to the emotional toll on victims.
- Delayed Compensation: Without a clear liable party, insurance payouts can be delayed, causing financial stress due to lost wages, car repairs, or medical bills that keep piling up.
- Psychological Strain: Beyond the physical pain, victims of hit-and-run crashes may deal with feelings of helplessness, fear, or anxiety. These emotional injuries often take just as long to heal.
