An illegal alien living in Georgia is facing a litany of charges after allegedly causing a car crash while under the influence that killed a father with young children.
"On May 1, Deiby Jhonatan Janamejoy Jansasoy, a criminal illegal alien from Colombia, was arrested for vehicular homicide, DUI, and driving without a valid license after killing a Georgia father," the Department of Homeland Security said in a Chevrolet Silverado driven by 47-year-old father of two Michael Sharpe.
The county is located just northeast of Savannah, Georgia.
Sharpe, who was trapped inside his vehicle and had to be extracted by a fire crew, was taken to a hospital, where he died.
Janamejoy Jansasoy attempted to leave the hospital before he was discharged, "presumably due to being wanted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement for deportation," according to the sheriff's office.
"Due to this behavior and inherent flight risk due to attempting to leave, Jansasoy was immediately arrested and taken to the Effingham County Jail," the sheriff's office said.
Janamejoy Jansasoy could face more charges.
