Five-Year-Old Dies in Hit-and-Run Accident

A red suburban struck three children Sunday, killing a five-year-old and sending her six-year-old cousin to the hospital with serious injuries. After hitting the children, the driver threw his SUV into reverse and sped away, but not before he hit a nearby car. Although the toxicology report has not yet been released, the circumstances surrounding the accident suggest that the driver was inebriated at the time of the accident.

Tests Reveal Alcohol Contributed to Tragic Accident

As reported on this blog, this summer a 17-year-old driver rolling through the hills of Wise County killed four of his passengers when he attempted to pass another car during a no passing zone. During the illegal pass, the Fort Worth driver, Danny Ray Nalley, misjudged the speed and proximity of an oncoming Ford F-350 pickup and slammed his Ford Mustang into the truck head-on.

Officials with the Texas Department of Public Safety announced yesterday that their investigation into the crash had revealed that Nalley had a blood-alcohol level of 0.03 at the time of the accident. Whether Nalley had other chemicals in his body remains – and whether Nalley will face criminal charges – remains an open question. In addition to possible criminal charges, Nalley may also a new round of civil allegations based on the revelation that the high school senior had been drinking prior to the accident.
