According to police, a 53-year-old off-duty University of Texas at San Antonio police officer was traveling in his personal vehicle north on Blanco Road when the woman attempted to turn south onto Blanco Road and pulled out of a private neighborhood.

That’s when, police say, the woman’s vehicle was struck in the driver-side door by the off-duty officer’s vehicle, which had the right of way.

Both drivers were taken to University Hospital, the woman with life-threatening injuries, police said. The off-duty officer had minor injuries.
