AUSTIN (KXAN) -- A wrong-way wreck on East Parmer Lane over the weekend left one driver dead and another charged with intoxication manslaughter. Police say Herman Choc, 30, had a blood alcohol level of 0.20 -- well above the 0.08 legal limit.

A witness told police he saw a gray Oldsmobile Bravado driving westbound in one of the two eastbound lanes of Parmer Lane around 3:30 a.m. Sunday. The Oldsmobile, driven by Choc, crashed head-on with a white Toyota Prius, according to an arrest affidavit. Eleanor Bailey Lane-Brown, 23, the driver of the Prius, died on the scene. She is from Edinburg in the Rio Grande Valley.

Choc and two of his passengers were pulled out of the overturned Oldsmobile and taken to the hospital, police say. When an officer arrived at the hospital, he claimed he could smell alcohol on Choc's breath.

The witness estimated the Oldsmobile was going 55 mph when it crashed into the Prius. That stretch of Parmer Lane has a grass median separating the eastbound and westbound lanes.

One of Choc's passengers suffered injuries including a broken ankle, broken leg, pelvic fractures and possible spine injuries, according to the arrest warrant. Police say two bags of cocaine were found on a second passenger, who suffered a possible head injury, spine injury and was unable to breathe on his own.

A third car was also involved in the wreck after the initial head-on, but there are no details about possible injuries to that driver.

According to Austin police, Choc is still in the hospital.
