Laredo, TX, October 15, 2026 —

Emilo Candelario Solis Jr. was arrested and charged with driving while intoxicated after a vehicle crashed through street barricades on Constantinople near the DoubleTree hotel on Wednesday evening, according to the available account.

The driver fled the scene after the crash. License plates left behind at the scene led police to Solis’s arrest, the account said. It did not specify where or when he was arrested, or identify the police agency involved.

The account names Solis as the person arrested and charged, but it provides no further details about the charge, any court proceedings or his response. An arrest and charge are not, by themselves, a determination of guilt.

Several details about the incident were not provided, including the calendar date of the Wednesday evening crash, the extent of any damage, whether anyone was injured and the number or type of barricades involved. The account also did not say whether the barricades were connected to roadwork or another activity.

No information was provided about the location of the arrest, whether Solis was released or remained in custody, or whether additional charges were filed. The account does not describe how police established the connection between the license plates and Solis beyond stating that the plates led to his arrest.

The available information therefore establishes only that a crash through street barricades occurred on Constantinople near the hotel on Wednesday evening, that the driver left the scene, and that police arrested and charged Solis with DWI after license plates were left behind. Further details about the incident and its legal status were not included.
