9 on Friday at about 10:30 p.m. when he stopped the 2010 Subaru Forester that Harvey was driving because it had a burned-out passenger taillight and expired registration.. Police described him as a 17-year-old Riverside resident. An 18-year-old Altadena man is accused of being drunk when he crashed a car in Pasadena late Thursday, killing a 17-year-old passenger and injuring three others, police said.
Police arrested Gerardo Garcia on suspicion of drunken driving and vehicular manslaughter following the 12:20 a.m. crash on Washington Boulevard at Lincoln Avenue, Pasadena police Lt. John Luna said.
The crash remains under investigation by the Pasadena Police Department’s Major Accident Investigation Team.
Two of the injured passengers had been taken to a hospital by private vehicle when firefighters arrived at the crash scene, Derderian said.
Fernandez later acknowledged this was not a normal practice.
"However, I can state that I did not feel impaired, but did place myself in a situation that I advise my clients to avoid," said Harvey, whose areas of law practice include criminal defense. Hill said in a complaint that he was patrolling W.Va. "I am very, very embarrassed by the situation and promise to make it a positive experience for myself."
Harvey, who was admitted to the West Virginia State Bar in 2005, previously worked as an assistant prosecuting attorney in Berkeley County for more than four years, and also was an assistant prosecuting attorney in Kanawha County, W.Va.
Attorney Phil Campbell had a target on his back months before he was set up for a DUI arrest by rival attorneys, according to documents obtained by FOX 13..
The badly injured Riverside teen was taken to Huntington Hospital in Pasadena where he succumbed to his injuries at 7:39 a.m., Los Angeles County Department of Coroner Investigator Dana Bee said.
“(The car) lost control and struck the freeway overpass embankment, causing the vehicle to overturn at least once,” Luna said.
It appeared he had been thrown from the car, Pasadena Fire Department spokeswoman Lisa Derderian said.
Harvey then was taken into custody, processed and booked at Eastern Regional Jail on Saturday at about 12:15 a.m., according to court and jail records.
Investigators had not confirmed whether the car that crashed was involved in a race.
The name of the teenage passenger who died following the crash was not available Sunday. He was being held in lieu of $100,000 bail pending his initial court appearance.
“According to independent witnesses, two vehicles had been street racing while traveling on Washington when the collision occurred,” Luna said.
West Virginia State Police Trooper C.J. Garcia and three other teenage passengers of the car suffered minor to moderate injuries in the crash.
After being treated for his injuries, Garcia was booked at the Pasadena Police Department Jail, according to police and Los Angeles County booking records
