After an initial investigation led troopers to believe an 18-wheeler driver was at fault in a fatal crash on I-10 Monday night, new evidence clears the driver of wrongdoing.
Troopers say the driver of the 18-wheeler has been located and cleared of any wrongdoing and criminal intent.
According to State Police, new evidence indicates that the driver of a Ford pick up was traveling on the inside shoulder of I-10 near milepost 35 when he sideswiped an 18-wheeler. The Ford then crossed the center median, striking a Toyota head-on killing Narlyn Chinchilla-Lopez, 23, of San Antonio, TX, as well as an unidentified passenger.
Police say charges are possible.
