The deadly crash involving three vehicles occurred at about 9:30 p.m. Monday, May 2, in the 1800 block of Fry Road.

The man was trapped inside his vehicle and was declared dead at the scene. His name has not been released pending notification of next of kin.
Three teens, who were in the Hyundai, were transported to a hospital with unspecified injuries. Yasin was later arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail for driving while intoxicated.
