early Saturday morning.

Thomas Kelly Jr., 27, is charged with intoxication manslaughter, collision involving ****** and tampering.

The ****** happened shortly after 1 a.m. on N. Collins Street, near NE Green Oaks Boulevard.

Arlington police say a 20024 Chevy Silverado was involved in a head-on ****** with a Harley Davidson.

The 55-year-old rider was pronounced ***** at the scene. The rider was later identified as Richard Wing of Dallas.

Witnesses told police that the Silverado was traveling north on N. Collins and was weaving in and out of lanes trying to pass drivers. The truck swerved into the center lane where he hit the motorcycle that was attempting to make a turn.

Witnesses also told police that after the wreck the driver of the Silverado, later identified as Kelly, started to throw cans from inside the vehicle into a nearby field and tried to run from the scene.

A person chased down the driver and held Kelly until officers arrived at the scene.

Kelly refused to perform roadside sobriety tests, but police say they believe he was ****** based on statements from Kelly and other observations.

Police recovered multiple ***** cans from the field where witnesses told them he was throwing items after the ******.

A blood sample will be sent to a lab for analysis.

Kelly is being held in the Arlington City Jail, records show.
