A 21-year-old Dallas man faces an intoxication manslaughter charge after a crash that killed a woman riding on the back of his motorcycle just after midnight this morning.
Erik M. Delgado-Pereira was booked into the custody of the Dallas County jail this morning, though he remains in the hospital. His bail has not been set.
His passenger, 22-year-old Ashley Ramirez, was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash along Interstate-35E near Colorado Boulevard in Oak Cliff.
Witnesses told Dallas County sheriff's deputies they'd seen two motorcycles traveling "at a high rate of speed" before one of the motorcycles struck a concrete barrier and guardrail, according to a sheriff's report. The passenger was thrown off by the impact, struck the guardrail and landed on a highway entrance ramp.
While in an ambulance after the crash, Delgado-Pereira told deputies he and Ramirez had been to a bar and that he had been drinking and snorting cocaine.
