ARLINGTON

A pickup truck overturned and then burst into flames on Interstate 20 early Tuesday, leading to the death of the sole occupant of the vehicle, police said.

The crash occurred in the 5700 block of East Interstate 20 just before 2:15 a.m.

Investigators say they believe the driver was headed eastbound at the time and for an unknown reason the truck left the roadway and veered onto the inside shoulder. It hit an unoccupied car that was parked on the shoulder, police said.

The impact caused the truck to overturn on the highway and catch fire.
