What they're saying:

Devon Mobley and his wife witnessed the crash in person and described the incident to FOX 4's David Sentendrey.

"It was one of the most horrific wrecks I've seen," Mobley said. "He was so off his rocks it was wild. He couldn’t keep eye contact though his eyes kept rolling. That’s how drunk he was."

Mobley says the driver pleaded with him and other witnesses to help him get away. The driver had a severe injury from the crash that prevented him from trying to leave.

"He was begging to go home, begging to let us take him home, stuff like that," Mobley said. "He wasn’t showing the remorse that someone should show after potentially killing someone."
