Suspect In Euless Officer's Death Was Arrested For DWI Before Fatal Crash

FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - Tarrant County Jail records show that Dylan Molina, who is suspected of killing Det. Alex Cervantes last month, had been previously arrested for drunk driving this year but was not charged until Dec. 16.

On December 16, Samson Park Police charged Molina with driving while intoxicated.

However, Molina has been in the Tarrant County Jail since the accident on November 27. Therefore, the arrest must have happened prior to the fatal crash.

It is unclear why Molina was not charged beforehand.

CBS 11 has reached out to the Samson Park Police department for comment.
