Case Number: 1508160028
A 41-year-old man died as a passenger in a vehicle crash at the intersection of South Padre Island Drive and Weber Sunday morning and the operator of the vehicle is accused of an intoxicated driving offense.
Corpus Christi Police responded to a vehicle crash at the South Padre Island Drive and Weber intersection at 2:29am Sunday morning. Officers learned a 39-year-old man drove a Toyota passenger car east on the freeway, navigated the Weber exit but struck the exit sign. Witnesses told Officers the Toyota travelled at a high rate of speed and struck the rear of a Nissan passenger car in the left lane of the South Padre Island Drive access road and caused the Nissan to travel into the intersection of South Padre Island Drive and Weber. Officers learned the Toyota struck a piling for the overpass to where they found the Toyota.
The 41-year-old male passenger in the Toyota did not survive the crash. The operator of the Nissan was a 37-year-old woman who received minor injuries as a result of the crash. The 39-year-old man who drove the Toyota was taken to the hospital for treatment for injuries as a result of the crash.
Officers believe alcohol consumption may be a contributing factor in this crash and so the 39-year-old man is accused of intoxicated manslaughter and will be delivered to the city detention center once he is released from the hospital.
