Edinburg H-E-B closed after car crashes into north side wall

EDINBURG, Texas (ValleyCentral) — An Edinburg H-E-B location is closed for the day after a car wrecked into the building Sunday, authorities say.

Police say the incident occurred at 1:30 p.m. when a car veered off the roadway at the intersection of 12th Street and Ebony Avenue and crashed into the north wall of an H-E-B store.

The driver of the red car allegedly ran a stop sign, police say. All five people who were in the car were transported to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

The building’s  integrity was not affected, according to police.

ValleyCentral reached out to H-E-B for comment.

“For the safety of our Partners and customers, the store on 1212 S. Closner will be temporarily closed today,” said Linda Tovar, H-E-B Director of Public Affairs. “We apologize for the inconvenience, and we are working to reopen soon.”

No partners or customers were injured during Sunday’s crash, Tovar stated.

H-E-B will reopen at 6 a.m. Tuesday.
