According to the Montgomery County Department of Police, Agustin E. Jaramillo Lopez was charged by investigators with Negligent Manslaughter by Vehicle following a tragic crash on North Frederick Avenue last summer. A Ram 1500 pickup’s excessive speed caused a tragic collision with a Nissan Altima that was emerging from a parking lot on the evening of July 20th, according to incident facts made public by the agency. The crash happened close to Travis Avenue.
The investigation into the accident exposed the sequence of events that preceded the tragedy, showing how Lopez’s pickup truck collided with the Altima from behind, sending both cars off the road in a violent impact with a tree. The Collision Reconstruction Unit’s analysis placed Lopez’s truck’s speed at nearly 60 miles over the speed limit. According to the police report, Jaramillo Lopez and a passenger in the Nissan were injured but survived, while Isaac Akomanyi, the driver of the Altima, eventually passed away in the hospital from his wounds.
Both automobiles were towed from the area in the aftermath of the incident. The allegations against Jaramillo Lopez were based on the fact that authorities verified that his blood alcohol level was 0.159, which is twice the legal limit. He is still in detention and faces harsh repercussions for the choices he made that fateful July night.
