Two teens have been arrested in connection with a March crash that killed a 53-year-old woman, Arlington police said.<\/p>\n
Arlington Police investigators obtained warrants for 18-year-old Adam Hamad and a juvenile male on one count each of racing on a highway causing death. Both were taken into custody April 15th by the U.S. Marshals North Texas Fugitive Task Force without incident.<\/p>\n
Hamad was booked into the Arlington City Jail, while the juvenile was taken to the Tarrant County Juvenile Detention Center.<\/p>\n
Police said the crash happened March 6th near South Cooper Street and Eden Road. <\/p>\n
Tanya Cypert, 53, was driving a 2022 Hyundai Tucson and attempted to turn left when her vehicle was struck by a northbound 2025 Mercedes-Benz C300 driven by Hamad. Cypert was taken to a hospital, where she later died.<\/p>\n
Witnesses reported the Mercedes and other vehicles appeared to be racing before the crash, speeding and weaving through traffic. Surveillance video supported those accounts, police said.<\/p>\n
Data from the Mercedes showed it was traveling more than 100 mph in a 45 mph zone at the time of the crash. Investigators believe the juvenile, who was driving a 2012 Lexus IS, was racing the Mercedes, though that vehicle was not involved in the collision.<\/p>\n
The investigation remains ongoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two teens have been arrested in connection with a March crash that killed a 53-year-old woman, Arlington police…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":253096,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[95528,150,152,151,294,30299,272],"class_list":{"0":"post-253095","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-arlington","8":"tag-all-local","9":"tag-arlington","10":"tag-arlington-headlines","11":"tag-arlington-news","12":"tag-crime","13":"tag-speeding","14":"tag-traffic"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253095","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=253095"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253095\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/253096"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=253095"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=253095"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=253095"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
