He faces multiple charges including Second-Degree Vehicular Homicide, Leaving the Scene of a Collision Resulting in Death, Tampering with Physical Evidence, Driving Under the Influence, and Inattentive Driving.
He was arraigned in Justice of the Peace Court 3 and committed to Sussex Correctional Institution on an $18,101 cash bond.
