SMITH COUNTY – New information following a fatal\u00a0crash in Smith County on Wednesday morning.\u00a0According to an arrest affidavit and our news partner KETK, the crash took place on FM 2015 south of FM 16 involving a white F250 and another vehicle. The driver of the F-250,\u00a0 Jeremiah Munoz, 31, drove into the southbound lane and collided head-on with a\u00a0 vehicle driven by Brandi Carter.<\/p>\n
Once deputies arrived at the scene of the crash, they observed the truck facing south and the vehicle driven by Carter in a ditch. When deputies approached Carter\u2019s vehicle, they found her dead beside her car, according to the arrest affidavit.<\/p>\n
As deputies spoke with Munoz, they allegedly detected a strong odor of alcohol coming from him. When asked if he had been drinking, Munoz stated that it was his birthday and he had had a couple of beers. Munoz then agreed to take a sobriety test, which he was unable to pass.<\/p>\n
Following the sobriety test, Munoz was placed under arrest for intoxication manslaughter and was transported to the Smith County Jail and charged with two counts of possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana.<\/p>\n
As the investigation continued, it was discovered that before the crash, Munoz had gotten into an altercation at a gas station and proceeded to steal the Ford-250. Officials said they later obtained the keys to the Ford-250 from Munoz and searched the truck.<\/p>\n
During the search of the truck, officials allegedly found an open container in the vehicle, THC pens, and a small blue pill in the glove compartment that is believed to be ecstasy, according to Munoz\u2019s arrest affidavit. Following the search of the truck, Munoz was charged with possession of a controlled substance.<\/p>\n
Munoz remains in Smith County Jail. His bond has not yet been set.<\/p>\n
