Frias is slated to appear in probable cause court early Wednesday morning.
The wreck held up eastbound traffic for hours Monday afternoon. Crews spent much of the time cleaning diesel spilled on the freeway. UPDATE: Pablo Isai Frias, 31, is charged with intoxication manslaughter for his role in yesterday's fatal crash at 7800 East Freeway.
