SAN ANTONIO - A driver was killed in a rollover crash early Thursday morning in north Bexar County.

The accident was reported around 2:30 a.m. on Highway 281 South at Overlook Parkway.


Sheriff's deputies said a driver in his 20s lost control of his vehicle and drove off the road, hitting a tree and a utility pole before rolling the vehicle numerous times onto Baptist Emergency Hospital property.

The hospital lost power as a result of the accident, but a backup generator provided electricity.

CPS energy said power won't be restored until about 2 p.m.

The name of the victim hasn't been released.
