Red light

Authorities from the Dallas Police Dept. have released details on a fatal accident that occurred at the intersection of Clark and Camp Wisdom Roads, early on Saturday morning.

According to the report, 16-year-old Taurean Babcock of Dallas and his passenger were hit by an intoxicated driver in a Nissan GTR that ran a red light and collided with Mr. Babcock’s Mercedes.

The force of the collision resulted in the Nissan then knocking down a utility pole and crashing into a nearby donut shop.

While Mr. Babcock’s passenger and the suspect and his three passengers were taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, Mr. Babcock was pronounced dead at the scene.

The driver of the Nissan was later charged with intoxication manslaughter and authorities are continuing their investigation.
