The Arlington Police Department has reported that one individual died in a four-vehicle accident that occurred on westbound I-20 shortly before Cooper Street on Monday, May 9.

According to preliminary investigations, the accident occurred after an SUV ran over an obstruction on the road. A Hyundai behind the SUV swerved to avoid the same obstruction and crashed into the center median before an 18-wheeler hit the Hyundai from behind. A pickup truck was also involved in the incident. The male driver of the Hyundai was killed and declared dead at the scene, while another individual was treated for injuries at the scene of the accident.

The attorneys at Woodson Law Firm see the trauma caused by multi-vehicle accidents such as this and know how overwhelming the physical and emotional injuries are for victims and their families. Our thoughts and condolences are with the family and friends of the victim in this accident as they mourn the loss of their loved one.
