The name of the driver killed in a wrong-way crash Sunday in Burleson was confirmed by the Tarrant County Medical Examiner.

Arlington resident Jose Garcia-Casas died at the scene Sunday when his pick-up, going the wrong way, slammed into a tractor-trailer on Interstate 35W in Burleson.

The crash was on the northbound bridge over Wilshire Boulevard. Burleson police investigated for about six hours and are now trying to reconstruct the events. They can't yet say why Garcia-Casas was going the wrong way.
