Illegal Immigrants Flee Deadly Crash After 22-Year-Old Killed in Fiery Wreck

Three illegal immigrants are now behind bars after a deadly drunk-driving crash in Arlington, Texas. Tragically this left a 22-year-old man fatally wounded and a community demanding answers.

As reported by The New York Post, the tragedy unfolded Saturday evening when 25-year-old Cesar Ramirez Castro reportedly drove his Ford F-150 onto the shoulder of I-20 and slammed into a car that had stopped along the highway.
