Investigators were called around 2 a.m. to the Katy Fwy feeder at Antoine Drive, where they found a badly burned and crashed-out car. Initial signs suggest the driver hit a pole before the crash and the driver’s remains were also found inside.

Due to how badly the vehicle was charred, investigators said they do not have much information but are looking into surveillance videos in the area, and the Vehicular Crimes Division was called out to assist.
