A Donna man will appear in court on Monday after he was indicted in connection with a crash that killed a tow truck driver in Harlingen.

Cristobal Stephan Garzez was indicted on Sept. 17 on charges of manslaughter, collision involving death and possession of a controlled substance, Cameron County court records show.

Garzez has been in custody since his arrest following the July 8 crash that killed 46-year-old David Zapata.

Records show Garzez has a bond reduction hearing set for Monday, Oct. 13, and an arraignment hearing set for Nov. 4.

As previously reported, Zapata — a tow truck driver — was fatally struck by a vehicle driven by Garzez while working on the expressway in Harlingen, according to a criminal complaint.
