First responders remove 72 year old Bobby Allen from his vehicle. Allen was flown to Conroe with serious injuries.

Driver Rolls Vehicle, Flown Out, SEGNO, December 4, 2020 - At approximately 1:15 pm on December 4, 2020, a red 2007 Ford Ranger, driven by Bobby Allen, 74, of Segno, was east-bound on FM-943. For some reason, Allen's vehicle left the pavement to the right, Allen overcorrected left, then overcorrected right, left the pavement to the right struck a fence and rolled three times (3340 block of FM-943). Allen's vehicle came to rest upright facing north. Allegiance Ambulance Service was dispatched to the scene along with the Segno Volunteer Fire Department and Trooper Ashlee White with the Texas Highway Patrol. Allen was removed from his vehicle (he had his seatbelt fastened) and was transported by ambulance to a landing zone where a medical helicopter transported him to Conroe Regional Hospital with serious injuries. Traffic on 943 was partially blocked during investigation and cleanup. Allen is facing a citation for failure to maintain a single lane of traffic. His vehicle was recovered by LakeView Wrecker and will be stored in Livingston.
