SAN DIEGO DUI hit & run kills teenager
SAN DIEGO DUI lawyer news
A teenager was arrested late Wednesday after a man was killed in a SAN DIEGO DUI hit-and-run in the Mission Hills neighborhood of San Diego.
The SAN DIEGO DUI victim was struck just after 11 p.m. Police said a transient was pushing a shopping cart near the intersection of Washington and India streets when he was hit by a car and killed. Investigators said they believe Alec Rowe, 18, was allegedly driving a 2003 Saturn SUV that hit the man, who was in his 30s, and then allegedly left the scene.
"A witness who was following the vehicle followed him over to an address on Hancock, where he was detained by some individuals over there," said San Diego SAN DIEGO DUI police Sgt. Mark Taylor said. "Officers responded to that location and took him into custody."
SAN DIEGO DUI Police said Thursday that Rowe would be charged with gross-vehicular manslaughter, felony DUI causing death, SAN DIEGO DUI and felony hit-and-run causing death.
SAN DIEGO DUI Investigators said Thursday that Rowe was "very intoxicated" and struck a guardrail with his car a half-mile before he hit the victim.
Rowe's SAN DIEGO DUI bail was set at $225,000, which his father posted within two hours of his SAN DIEGO DUI arrest. Mr. Rowe's SAN DIEGO DUI attorney will present extenuating circumstances.
