George Alvarez's Drug Use Linked to Fatal Brownsville Crash

George Alvarez, the driver who crashed his SUV into a group of people waiting for a bus outside a migrant centre in Brownsville, Texas, killing eight and seriously injuring 10 others, has been identified and charged with eight counts of manslaughter and 10 counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The FBI is investigating whether the crash was intentional, and police are looking into claims that the driver was hurling invectives at the migrants prior to the crash. Alvarez has a lengthy criminal history, and blood screens from the hospital where he was being treated showed he had drugs in his system at the time of the crash.
