A 56-year-old man has died in an accident after his vehicle crashed Friday night in Dallas.
The crash happened around 12:15 a.m., in the 9800 block of Garland Road, near Buckner Boulevard in the White Rock area of Dallas.
According to a witness’s testimony to the police, the Chevrolet Silverado was traveling at a high speed and moving southbound when the driver swerved to avoid crashing into another car traveling much slower.
The witness said the driver then lost control and crossed the median and the northbound lanes before hitting nearby trees and rolling over.
The driver of the Silverado was identified as Mark Blanton. He was taken to a hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
