The driver of the Mercedes, identified as 28-year-old Michael Pena, was taken into custody. He has been charged with second-degree vehicular manslaughter, driving while intoxicated and refusal to take a breath test.

Two men who were passengers in the Mercedes were also taken to a local hospital in stable condition.

Wednesday night, loved ones could be seen leaving flowers, candles and a sign on a sidewalk near the scene of the deadly crash.
