DEL RIO, TX-- A 63-year-old man from San Angelo was arrested on charges of intoxication manslaughter following a fatal crash on U.S. Highway 277 Sunday morning, according to the Del Rio News Herald.
Fraire Rodrigo Luna was charged after the 1:30 a.m. crash where he collided with Heberaide Maria Garcia, 28, north of the city, according to Texas DPS Sgt. Maria Montalvo.
