College Station Head-On Collision Leaves One Critically Injured; Driver Faces Multiple Charges

A violent head-on collision in College Station, Texas, on Friday evening has resulted in one driver being critically injured, while the other faces multiple charges. The crash occurred at approximately 6 p.m. in the 5000 block of Holleman Drive South near Graham Road.

The incident involved a red Ford pickup truck driven by Cody Tyler Morgan, 22, of Centerville. Authorities report that Morgan ran a stop sign, leading to a collision with a Toyota RAV4. Investigators later linked Morgan’s vehicle to an earlier incident where he was reported firing a gun into the ground at a student housing complex at 2045 Jones Butler Road. Following this, witnesses reported him fleeing the scene in his pickup truck.

The driver of the RAV4 sustained extensive injuries, including broken ankles, a fractured pelvis, femur, and ribs. As of the latest reports, this individual is in critical condition and was airlifted to a nearby hospital for emergency treatment.

Charges and Prior History

Cody Tyler Morgan is facing a series of charges stemming from the crash, including:

Intoxication Assault with a Vehicle Causing Serious Bodily Injury
Reckless Driving
Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon
Window Tint Violation

Witnesses reported seeing Morgan traveling at speeds up to 80 mph just before the crash. Following the accident, he attempted to flee the scene but was apprehended by police shortly thereafter. Inside Morgan’s pickup truck, law enforcement discovered several open containers of alcohol, raising further concerns about his state at the time of the incident.

This incident marks Morgan’s sixth booking in the Brazos County jail, with an extensive criminal history that includes previous arrests for DWI, public intoxication, and driving without insurance. As of Saturday, he remains in custody at the Brazos County Detention Center, with bonds set over $100,000.

Additional Arrests and Investigation

A passenger in Morgan’s truck, identified as Jett Ubben, 23, was also apprehended for public intoxication after allegedly attempting to flee the scene. Ubben displayed signs of intoxication and was taken to a hospital before being booked into jail. He has since been released on a $300 bond. This marks Ubben’s fourth arrest since 2020, with past charges including possession of marijuana, DWI, and public intoxication. Ubben stated that he had just met Morgan and did not know him well.

Investigators continue to look into the circumstances surrounding the collision, including the impact of poor road conditions due to recent rain and potential tire issues with Morgan’s pickup truck. The situation remains under investigation, as authorities consider all contributing factors that led to the tragic events.
