Fort Worth police arrested a suspected drunk driver after a fatal crash that left one person dead and another injured, according to reports. Authorities allege the driver was intoxicated at the time of the collision and now faces serious criminal charges. Emergency crews responded to the scene, where one victim was pronounced dead and another was transported for medical treatment. Investigators continue to examine the circumstances that led to the crash. Crashes involving suspected impaired drivers are among the most preventable tragedies on Texas roadways. When a driver chooses to get behind the wheel after consuming alcohol or drugs, innocent motorists, passengers, pedestrians, and families can suffer devastating consequences. Investigators may review toxicology results, surveillance footage, dashcam video, witness statements, crash scene measurements, vehicle data, cell phone records, and 911 recordings to determine exactly what occurred and establish liability. In some cases, civil claims may extend beyond the impaired driver to other parties that contributed to the circumstances surrounding the crash. If you lost a loved one in a Fort Worth drunk-driving crash, fatal collision, intoxication-related accident, or serious roadway wreck, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, mental anguish, lost financial support, and other damages. If you were injured by an impaired driver, you may also have the right to pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, impairment, disfigurement, and other damages.

According to Richardson police, officers responded around 5:13 p.m. to the 1400 block of East Arapaho Road after reports of a crash.

Juvenile Struck and Killed by SUV in Dallas
A juvenile was struck and killed by an SUV on Dallas’ Julius Schepps Freeway early Saturday morning, according to NBC 5 DFW. Early reports indicated that a young person died after being hit by a vehicle in Dallas, and authorities were investigating the circumstances surrounding the collision. Additional details about what led to the crash had not yet been released. Fatal pedestrian crashes on highways can become deadly within seconds because drivers may have limited time to react and pedestrians have little protection from fast-moving traffic. Investigators may need to determine whether visibility, lighting, speed, driver attention, roadway design, impairment, distraction, or another factor contributed to the collision. Evidence such as crash scene measurements, dashcam footage, surveillance video, vehicle damage, roadway lighting conditions, 911 calls, witness statements, and event data recorder information may be critical in determining what happened.
