The man whose truck smashed through a Las Vegas bus stop on Monday, killing one person and critically injuring another, has a history of driving under the influence.

That's according to the Harris County district attorney's office, in the Houston area. Officials say 44-year-old Steven N. Murray was convicted four times in Texas for driving while intoxicated during the 1990s, and two other charges of DUI against him were dropped.

Metro says 55-year-old Patricia Hoff was killed when Murray's pick up crashed into a bus stop on Boulder Highway near Flamingo Monday.

Another woman 26-year-old Porshe Hughes was seriously injured in the crash. She's hospitalized at Sunrise Hospital in critical condition.

  1. I wish that people would allow themselves to look a both sides of this terrible story. Yes he was on durgs, But they are perscribed perscriptons. And this is an accident. His past issues are 10 years old he has piad dearly for his mistakes. And how he has to live with this for the rest of his life too. He is a very kind and loving person that would never do anything on purpose to hurt anyone. Please I beg for people to condsider him and his family that are also devistated by all of this. My prays go out to all that are involed in all of this.
