He said Keough, a deputy constable from Montgomery County Precinct 5 and a third driver were taken to a hospital after the crash. The spokesman said Keough suffered some broken bones but was stable and alert.

Keough underwent surgery to get his pelvis and hip reconstructed, officials said. He is being checked by doctors and resting.

The deputy constable was released Thursday evening and is recovering at home.

“Please keep the deputy and judge in your thoughts and prayers,” Keough’s spokesman said in a statement.

The cause of the crash is under investigation.
