EL PASO, Texas, Nov. 12 (UPI) -- Four people were killed and five others hospitalized Thursday in a three-vehicle crash in El Paso, Texas, police said.

The driver of a Toyota Tundra who allegedly caused the crash may have been drunk and faced possible manslaughter charges, detectives told KFOX-TV, El Paso.

The Tundra driver clipped a Dodge Neon, forcing it into oncoming traffic where it was hit by a Buick Century. The driver of the Century and three passengers in the Century were killed.

The driver of the Toyota and four passengers in the other cars were hospitalized, police said.
