An Arkansas man was killed and a infant boy was hurt in a one-car crash Monday, authorities say.
George Perez, 23, of Springdale was driving a Ford Fusion east on County Line Road shortly before noon when the vehicle drifted off the road's north side, hitting a tree, according to a preliminary state police report.
Springdale police said Perez died of his injuries at Northwest Medical Center. The child, who police said suffered "very minor" injuries, was also taken to the hospital.
Conditions at the time of the crash were reportedly rainy and cloudy, and police said the road was wet.
At least 145 people have died on Arkansas roads this year, according to preliminary state police data.
In a news release, Springdale police said they are investigating what caused the accident.
