A Dallas/Fort Worth woman has been arrested in connection to the death of a pedestrian and the serious injury of another due to a wreck Tuesday night.
Alicia Susanna Robles is accused of striking two men on the service road along U.S. Highway 75 just south of Wilmeth Road. Robles is charged with intoxication assault and intoxication manslaughter.
According to Mckinney police, the men were on foot, traveling south in the right lane of the service road after their truck had broken down. They are believed to have been hit by Robles’ vehicle around 8:45.
Sadly, a 32-year-old man was killed and the other man, 40-years-old, was transported by helicopter to Parkland Memorial Hospital. His status is currently unknown and the victims’ names have not been released.
Accidents such as this one happen every day in DFW and across the country. If you or someone you love ever find themselves the victim of a drunken driving accident, you will want to contact a wrongful death attorney. While nothing can be done to erase a tragedy such as this one, it is important to take the necessary steps to protect the rights and interests of your loved ones and hole those responsible accountable for their selfish actions.
