Both drivers were conscious and alert, according to the person who reported the accident to police, HPD spokesman John Cannon said.

An ambulance transported someone to an area hospital, but no information about the extent of injuries was available from the Houston Fire Department, spokesman Jay Evans said Tuesday.
