Three people have been hospitalized with serious injuries following a head-on crash in Haltom City, police say.

Around 7:10 p.m., officers responded to the two-vehicle crash in the 4600 block of Glenview.

Preliminary reports indicated a SUV driven by a 70-year-old woman was traveling westbound when it crossed the center line and crashed into a Mazda traveling eastbound, police said.

But after an overnight investigation, traffic investigators told WFAA that the Mazda crossed the center line and the SUV tried to avoid it by veering to the left. Then, when the Mazda corrected back to the right, it crashed head on into the SUV. 

Police said the 70-year-old woman, and the two men inside the Mazda were trapped inside their vehicles.

Once Haltom City Fire Department crews arrived on scene, all three victims were extricated and transported to local hospitals with severe injuries.

Police said the crash remains under investigation.
