Missouri hombre declarado culpable en accidente ebrio muerte de estudiante

MARYVILLE, Mo. (AP), A jury has found a 22-year-old Maryville man guilty of DWI resulting in death for crashing into a bar last year and killing a Northwest Missouri State University student.

El jurado del condado de Nodaway emitió el veredicto el sábado en el juicio de Alex Allen Catterson.

Police say Catterson’s blood alcohol level of.235 was nearly three times the legal limit to drive on Jan. 7, 2018, when he plowed his pickup truck into the Palms Bar and Grill, hitting 19-year-old Morgan McCoy. She was taken to a hospital, where she died.

La emisora KFEQ informa de que Catterson será sentenciado en una fecha posterior, cuando se enfrente a una pena de al menos tres años de prisión.
