News 4 has learned that investigators are focusing on the possibility that Walsh had some sort of seizure before his out-of-control car barreled into Nararrete.
Friends told News 4 that Walsh was on his way to pick up his own child before the wreck.
Walsh is hospitalized in stable condition and Nararrete's 6-year-old daughter was taken to a hospital with minor injuries injuries.
