Houston, TX — A man was charged with intoxication assault after an accident involving two men on the side of the highway fixing a car in Houston, Texas, on Wednesday, July 30, 2014. The accident took place on Interstate 10, near North Eldridge Parkway, around 9:30 in the evening.
One of the victims was having car trouble and had pulled off onto the shoulder of the highway. A friend he had asked for helped had arrived and parked behind him.
