AUSTIN, Texas — Authorities have arrested a 37-year-old man in connection with Thursday night's 17-vehicle crash on I-35 that left five people dead, including an infant and a child.

Solomun Weldekeal Araya faces five counts of intoxication manslaughter and two counts of intoxication assault, according to the Austin Police Department. He is currently in custody at the Travis County Jail.

CBS Austin has confirmed Araya is scheduled to have a court date next week for a previous speeding violation in Wilmer in the DFW area.

The crash occurred at approximately 11:38 p.m. in the southbound lanes of I-35 between Howard Lane and Parmer Lane in North Austin. The area is currently under construction, with concrete barriers lining the roadway.
