Wooley Law Takeaway

A major crash on northbound US 75 at Ridgeview Drive in Allen closed multiple lanes during the Wednesday morning commute on September 9, 2026.

According to the traffic information provided, the collision was verified at approximately 6:19 a.m. The lane diagram shows three northbound travel lanes and the right shoulder closed, leaving only the far-left travel lane open.

Early information did not identify the vehicles involved, confirm whether anyone was injured, or explain what caused the wreck.

Northbound US 75 Crash at Ridgeview Drive Closes Three Lanes

The collision caused a significant traffic disruption on US 75/Central Expressway near Ridgeview Drive in Allen.

Drivers traveling north toward McKinney, Fairview, and other Collin County communities could encounter heavy backups, emergency vehicles, and traffic merging into the single remaining open lane.

Because information about the crash remains preliminary, it would be premature to determine whether speeding, distraction, following too closely, an unsafe lane change, or another factor contributed.

Potentially important evidence may include:

  • TxDOT traffic-camera footage

  • Dashcam video

  • Allen police crash reports

Man Charged with Intoxication Manslaughter in Dallas Crash

A wrong-way crash on Highway 67 in Duncanville killed a 29-year-old father and seriously injured two other people late Thursday night, September 3, 2026. The fatal wreck happened at approximately 11:00 p.m. on US 67 near Danieldale Road. Authorities say a vehicle traveling north in the southbound lanes of Highway 67 collided head-on with another car and clipped several other vehicles. The man killed was later identified as Kenan Ellis, 29. Ellis was traveling with two of his cousins, Shaun and Shaud Steward, who suffered serious injuries but are expected to survive. Police Arrest Driver After Fatal Duncanville Wrong-Way Crash Police arrested 26-year-old Alexander Nunez, who authorities say was driving a stolen Audi the wrong way on Highway 67. According to arrest records described by police, Nunez was allegedly intoxicated and failed field sobriety tests. He faces intoxication manslaughter, two counts of intoxication assault, and unauthorized use of a vehicle. The charges are allegations, and criminal liability has not been finally determined. Two Passengers Seriously Injured in US 67 Wreck Ellis's two cousins were transported to the hospital with serious injuries. Family members said the men suffered multiple broken bones, and one may need to use a wheelchair for several months while recovering. The crash reportedly occurred only minutes before Ellis would have arrived home. Evidence in a Fatal Wrong-Way Crash A fatal Duncanville wrong-way accident can require investigators to reconstruct how and where the driver entered the highway in the wrong direction and how long the vehicle traveled before impact. Important evidence may include: Highway and traffic-camera footage Dashcam and surveillance video Vehicle event-data recorder information Toxicology and alcohol-testing evidence Cell phone records when relevant Witness statements Dallas County crash-scene photographs Vehicle damage and debris patterns GPS or navigation information Bar, restaurant, or alcohol-purchase evidence when legally relevant Evidence showing where the Audi entered US 67 could be particularly important in establishing the timeline before the head-on collision. Wrong-Way Crashes Can Cause Catastrophic Injuries Wrong-way highway collisions frequently involve opposing vehicles traveling toward one another at significant speeds. Unlike many rear-end or side-impact collisions, both vehicles may contribute substantial closing speed to a head-on impact. That can result in severe fractures, traumatic brain injuries, spinal injuries, internal injuries, and fatalities. The Wooley Law Firm represents people injured in Dallas-area car accidents, including serious crashes throughout Duncanville and southern Dallas County. The firm has also reported on a separate major US 67 crash at Main Street in Duncanville and a major US 67 collision at I-20. Those crashes involved different circumstances and are unrelated to the September 3 wrong-way wreck. Wrongful Death After a Suspected Drunk-Driving Crash The death of a parent can leave a family facing both profound personal loss and significant financial consequences. When evidence establishes that another driver's negligence caused a fatal collision, certain surviving family members may have rights under Texas wrongful death law. A civil investigation is separate from the criminal prosecution. Families do not necessarily have to wait for the criminal case to end before investigating available evidence, insurance coverage, and potential civil claims. Depending on the facts, damages in a wrongful death case may include loss of financial support, loss of companionship and society, mental anguish, funeral expenses, and other damages recognized by Texas law. Injured or Lost a Loved One in a Duncanville Wrong-Way Crash? If you were seriously injured or lost a family member in a Duncanville car accident, US 67 wrong-way crash, Danieldale Road wreck, suspected drunk-driving collision, or fatal Dallas County highway accident, you may have the right to seek justice and pursue compensation if another driver or party was legally responsible. A Duncanville car accident lawyer can investigate vehicle data, video, toxicology evidence, witness statements, insurance coverage, and the events leading up to the collision. Call The Wooley Law Firm at (214) 699-6524 for a free consultation. You don't pay unless we win. This article is based on preliminary law-enforcement information and developing reporting concerning the September 3, 2026 collision. Alexander Nunez has been charged with criminal offenses, but criminal charges are allegations and do not constitute proof of guilt or a final determination of civil liability. Additional or different facts may become available as the investigation and criminal proceedings continue. This article is for general informational purposes only and is not legal advice.
