LEWISVILLE, Texas — One person was arrested after a crash involving two cars that were suspected to be racing each other, according to police.

The Texas Department of Public Safety said the crash happened just after 9:30 p.m. Wednesday on the southbound lanes of Sam Rayburn Tollway near Standridge Drive.

DPS said a Ford Mustang and a 2016 Chevrolet Corvette were suspected to be racing in the southbound lanes when the Mustang allegedly rear-ended a 2018 Hyundai Elantra that was not involved in the racing.

The impact from the collision caused the driver of the Mustang to veer into the Corvette's lane, officials said, causing another collision. The driver of the Corvette then veered into the median and rolled over.

DPS said the driver of the Mustang, identified as Jordan Brown, 27, left the scene on foot, but was later located and charged with intoxication assault, accident involving serious bodily injury and racing on highway causing serious bodily injury.

The driver of the Corvette and a passenger were taken to a local hospital to be treated for injuries. The driver of the Elantra was treated and released from the scene.

No other information was released.
