A Texas man has been arrested after police say he hit and killed a pedestrian while intoxicated and then kept driving.
According to PEOPLE, Paul, 24, was arrested Saturday and booked at the Travis County Correctional Complex on several traffic offenses, an accident involving injury and intoxication manslaughter with a vehicle, based on inmate records.
Witnesses told police a Ford Focus struck a man who was crossing the street with a shopping cart around 10:30 p.m. KXAN reports the crash happened at Slaughter Lane and Manchaca Road. KVUE reported that an arrest affidavit says the victim was in the car after the impact.
KXAN reports Paul later parked at the South Austin Beer Garden and tried to go inside, but employees noticed something was wrong. Police say he failed a field sobriety test. He is being held on a $110,000 bond.
These are allegations from police and court records, and a response from Paul was not included in the reports. He is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
