12/28: Leyritz Charged With Manslaughter
Posted by: James
Just saw this on the ESPN site. Jim Leyritz has been arrested on on charges of driving under the influence and killing another driver in a crash.
Wow. That's just horrible. Thoughts and prayers obviously go out to that young woman's family and friends.
Leyritz, who turned 44 on Thursday, faces charges of DUI manslaughter and DUI property damage, said Detective Kathy Collins, Fort Lauderdale police spokeswoman.
...
Fort Lauderdale authorities got a call at 3:20 a.m. that a crash had occurred in the city's entertainment district, Collins said.
She said Leyritz was driving a 2006 Ford Expedition when he collided at an intersection with a 30-year-old woman driving a 2000 Mitsubishi. The woman was ejected from the car. She was critically injured and transported to the Broward General Medical Center, where she died, Collins said. Her identity was not immediately released.
