Weekend Auto Accidents Put Two In Hospital Here
Two local weekend traffic crashes left two men hospitalized at San Jacinto Memorial. Harri man Harriman, a Franta Motor Co. mechanic, and 18 year old Tony Rahgle Perez from Cypress suffered serious injuries after a tire blowout and double rollover on High way 146 near La Porte and Decker Drive outside the city. Perez and Alfred Marron, 15, rode with Perez. Marron escaped with minor cuts. Deputies and state police linked Harriman’s crash to a four car collision that sent 20 year old Paul Mikulencak to Panadenia Medical Center.
