Harris County Pct. 5 deputy constable and daughter killed in freeway crash
Harris County Pct. 5 Deputy Constable Katherine Hutson and her daughter Kacey were killed in a fiery three-vehicle crash in Houston on Friday morning, officials say.
Officials from the HPD Vehicular Crimes Division report that Deputy Constable Katherine Hutson, operating an extra job associated with traffic control for nearby construction, was parked in a white Chevrolet Impala in a protective stance behind the construction crew.
The vehicle, with emergency lights activated, was struck by Alvarado's gray Mazda 3, resulting in a fiery explosion that pronounced both the deputy and the juvenile passenger deceased at the scene.

The incident also injured a 25-year-old female passenger in Alvarado's vehicle, who is currently being treated with non-life-threatening conditions.
Alvarado, who remains hospitalized due to injuries sustained in the crash, was found to be under the influence at the time of the incident. Upon his discharge, Alvarado is slated to be transferred to Harris County Jail.
His mugshot will be released once he is out of the hospital. Houston police shared a correction Friday night saying a mugshot they released was not of the suspect but of another man with the same name who was not involved in the crash. They apologized for the mix-up.
