GARLAND, Texas (AP) -- A driver has been charged with intoxication manslaughter after police say she fatally struck a person standing by a disabled vehicle on the shoulder of a Dallas-area freeway.
Garland police said Sunday that 53-year-old Rhonda Anderson of Mequite has been charged in the Saturday night incident.
