A city official in Texas was arrested early Monday, after she veered off a highway and smashed into two men — a father and son — who were standing outside an abandoned vehicle, authorities said.

Dee Ann Haney, 54, was charged with intoxication manslaughter in the fatal crash just after midnight on Interstate 45 near the Galveston Causeway Bridge, KHOU reported.

Haney, a commissioner-at-large for Texas City in Galveston County, was driving northbound on the highway in a truck when she drove off the road near a stranded motorist, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Haney struck two men standing outside the vehicle, investigators said.

The victims, a 58-year-old father and his 33-year-old son, died at the scene. They were not immediately identified, KPRC reports.

Haney, whose term expires in May, was charged after being taken to a hospital for observation, where she was also tested for alcohol impairment.

Haney was ordered held without bail and was scheduled to appear in front of a judge later Monday, KTRK reports.
