An Alamo man is in custody after fatally striking a pedestrian with his vehicle on Monday evening and fleeing the scene, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Humberto Isaac Garza, 33, is facing charges of intoxication manslaughter and collision involving personal injury or death, DPS said in a news release issued Tuesday morning.

According to DPS, the crash happened Monday at around 5:15 p.m. on State Highway 107 east of FM 493.

One individual, 76-year-old Joe Davila Jr., was taking trash to his garbage bin when a gray Nissan Rogue driven by Garza veered off the roadway “for unknown reasons,” and collided into Davila.

“The driver of the Nissan did not stop and fled the scene,” DPS said. “A witness followed the Nissan, and moments later, with the assistance of a Hidalgo County Sheriff’s deputy, the suspect was apprehended at a nearby business parking lot.”

Davila was pronounced dead at the scene.

The crash remains under investigation.
