A two-vehicle crash on Interstate 30 in Arlington early Saturday left one person dead and another injured, according to the Arlington Police Department.
The collision happened shortly before 2 a.m. near SH 360 and Great Southwest Parkway after officers received multiple 911 calls reporting a major crash involving a vehicle on fire.
When officers arrived, they found a white sedan and a gray sedan. The white sedan was on fire. Firefighters extinguished the blaze, but the driver of the white sedan was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
The driver of the gray sedan was taken to a nearby hospital with injuries that were not immediately disclosed.
Investigators said both vehicles were traveling westbound on I-30 when the white sedan lost control, struck the gray sedan, then hit a wall and caught fire. The cause of the loss of control has not yet been determined.
Authorities have not released the victim’s identity pending notification of next of kin. The investigation is ongoing.
