A truck driver accused of causing a deadly 17-vehicle crash on I-35 in March now faces multiple second-degree felony charges, according to the Travis County District Attorney's Office. "Our hearts continue to break for the victims and their families," Travis County District Attorney José Garza said in a statement. "In this case, a group of independent Travis County community members reviewed the evidence and the law and determined that there was probable cause to believe that Mr. Araya's conduct was unlawful." Weldekeal-Araya was initially charged with five counts of intoxication manslaughter and two counts of intoxication assault. In a statement, Myers said the indictments were a "desperate attempt to criminalize a tragic accident."
