A man in his 40s was arrested Sunday after Arlington police said he crashed into another vehicle and caused that driver to die.
According to police, the crash occurred around 2 a.m. in the 200 block of S. State Highway 360.
Officials said a vehicle with two people were involved in a crash that resulted in their vehicle becoming disabled while on the highway.
Investigators said the driver was trying to remove his seatbelt in order to get out of the disabled vehicle. But that's when a second car with three people inside, was traveling southbound, and struck the disabled vehicle.
The driver who was attempting to take off his seatbelt to get out of the vehicle was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. His name has not been released, pending next of kin.
The other driver who crashed into the disabled vehicle, identified as Christopher Kelly, was arrested on an intoxication manslaughter charge.
Officials said the other people involved in the crash were transported to the hospital and are expected to survive.
