On Monday night, McGee was hooking a stalled car to his tow rig on one of the upper level ramps of the High Five interchange in North Dallas.

An accused drunk driver slammed into him from behind, throwing McGee over the side. He fell at least 30 feet to his death.

The accused drunk driver now identified as Denise Chantel Alford, was arrested on intoxicated manslaughter charges.

A family friend has set up a Go Fund Me page to help McGee's widow cope with funeral expenses.
