A passenger in a sedan racing down East Alameda Parkway early Saturday morning died after the driver lost control and crashed, police said.
Aurora officers responded to the rollover crash just west of South Chambers Road on Alameda at about 12:45 a.m. Saturday, according to a news release from the department.
Police said the BMW sedan was street racing down Alameda from Sable Boulevard when the driver, 19-year-old Edwin Rosales-Sandoval of Denver, crashed on a curve. The sedan left the roadway, struck a grocery store sign, and rolled. No other vehicles were involved in the crash.
Paramedics took Rosales-Sandoval and a 17-year-old girl who was also in the car to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Another passenger, an unidentified adult man, died at the scene of the crash, police said. He will be identified by the Arapahoe County Coroner’s Office.
Investigators believe Rosales-Sandoval was drunk and driving on a revoked license at the time of the crash. The Denver man’s license had been revoked following a previous DUI incident, Aurora police said.
Rosales-Sandoval was arrested on suspicion of vehicular homicide, reckless driving, DUI, and driving on a revoked license, police reported. As of Sunday morning, he was being held on a $75,000 bail.
He is scheduled to appear in court on Thursday for a filing of charges hearing, court records show.
