Two Johnson High School students killed in fiery crash on North Side, district officials confirm

Two Johnson High School students were killed in a fiery two-vehicle crash on the North Side Saturday afternoon, according to Johnson HS Principal Gary Comalander.

The crash happened at 3:50 p.m. Saturday, in the 23200 block of Bulverde Road and TPC Parkway, near the high school’s entrance.

It’s unclear what led to the crash, but deputies said the impact led to both vehicles bursting into flames, entrapping the two drivers. Both of them were pronounced deceased at the scene.

A letter was sent out to the student body and parents from Principal Comalander on Sunday, saying counselors and support from District STAN counselors will be available to all students.

“Dear Johnson HS community,
