A Gainesville man has been charged in a crash on Aviation Blvd. that left another man dead last week.
The Gainesville Police Department said on social media that Jose Ruben Acosta Turcios, 19, was charged in the death of Paquito Turcios Galvez, 35.
Turcios was driving a 2010 Infiniti G37 at a high rate of speed on April 24, when he lost control, striking multiple fixed objects and flipped. Galvez was a passenger in the vehicle.
Turcios faces charges of homicide by vehicle, obstruction, reckless driving, racing, failure to maintain lane, too fast for conditions and driving on the wrong side of the road.
The department also said that Turcios allegedly hindered the investigation by fabricating information surrounding the details of the crash.
