According to the Dallas County Sheriff’s Office, the fatal crash occurred on westbound Interstate 20 beneath Highway 67 when a vehicle collided with the rear of a parked 18-wheeler. Emergency responders quickly arrived at the scene to provide assistance and secure the area as investigators began working to determine the circumstances surrounding the collision.

The crash led to the closure of the two right westbound lanes and the shoulder of Interstate 20, while the westbound entrance ramp from Highway 67 to I-20 was also shut down. Motorists were advised to expect significant traffic delays and seek alternate routes while first responders and investigators remained at the scene.
