one dead, two seriously injured in alleged drunk driving crash.

On February 1, 2026, a truck allegedly driven by Joel Avalos struck a sedan at the intersection of Singleton and Hampton in Dallas. A 33-year-old man was killed and two other occupants were seriously injured in the crash. Intoxication manslaughter and intoxication assault charges have been filed against Avalos who allegedly ran a red light. Avalon's blood alcohol was reportedly three times the legal limit. When it comes to this level of intoxication, do not give the bars a free pass. Commercial providers of alcohol who serve to obviously intoxicated customers are liable for the damages they cause.
