The friend got concerned when the motorcycle driver returned without her friend after a second ride. The driver told the friend that they had a crash and he gave her directions as to where her friend could get picked up.  The friend went and found the female in the 3800 block of Saratoga Blvd, and picked her up and took her back to the bar and called police. The motorcycle driver, Irie Dalton Williams (08/29/1991), which had left the bar walking was located nearby and was determined to be intoxicated and he was arrested.  The crash investigation revealed that the motorcycle driver was attempting to make a turn to return to the bar when he lost control after striking the curb and the bike fell over onto the both of them.  The female was transported to Spohn South Hospital by CCFD EMS for her injuries, and the driver of the motorcycle was treated for injuries he received in the crash, then booked at the City Detention Center on charges of driving while intoxicated, a Class B misdemeanor and driving with a suspended driver’s license a Class C misdemeanor.  Corpus Christi Police Traffic Investigators will be looking into any additional charges that may be filed against the suspect regarding the crash, and leaving the scene of a crash.
