Arrest Made: Drunk Driver Cruises 40 Miles With Pedestrian's Body After Fatal Accident


A Saturday night joyride in Dallas turned into a horrifying odyssey for both a pedestrian and Nestor Joel Lujan Flores (31). After allegedly slamming into someone who catapulted through his windshield and landed next to him, Flores embarked on a 38-mile road trip with his unwitting passenger - deceased and silent.

Instead of pulling over in panic, Flores drove on, the shattered windshield a macabre trophy of his accident. It wasn't until hours later, parked outside a Jack in the Box with a car bearing the scars of his trauma, that someone finally called 911. Police arrived to a scene of chilling confusion: Flores, disoriented and claiming he'd hit an animal, and a lifeless body slumped beside him.

But the tale twisted further. Investigators unraveled the dark truth: the crash hadn't happened near the restaurant, but miles away in Dallas County. There, on the highway near Cockrell Hill Road, they found a mangled crash scene echoing the damage on Flores' car, and worse, "human remains" matching the passenger he'd unknowingly carried.

Faced with this grim evidence, Flores' flimsy animal tale crumbled. Intoxication manslaughter charges followed, a grim echo of his past DUIs. As the Dallas County Sheriff's Office takes over the investigation, Flores sits in jail, the weight of his actions and the silent passenger's memory a terrifying burden.

This Texas nightmare stands as a stark reminder of the deadly consequences of driving under the influence. It's a story of lives shattered, a road trip to nowhere fueled by recklessness, and a chilling reminder that sometimes, the monsters on the road aren't always what they seem.

Remember, share this story, spark awareness, and drive with responsibility.
