Triangles Injured in Serious Auto Accident

On Friday, October 17th a group of five chapter Brothers from the University of Houston were in route to a chapter retreat in Laredo, Texas.  While switching lanes, the driver observed a tire on the interstate and swerved to avoid it.  The vehicle lost control and rolled over 5-6 times.  In the process, two of the five Brothers were thrown from the vehicle and the other three were pinned inside. Although they were seriously injured, fortunately, all survived the crash and are now on long roads to recovery.
