[h=1]Drunk driver who killed four people and injured eight more after plowing through busy bus stop at 100 mph[/h]
This is the drunk driver who brought carnage to a bus stop yesterday, killing four people and leaving seven more fighting for their lives.
Las Vegas Police have charged Gary Lee Hosey Jr, 23, with four felony counts of driving under the influence causing death after his Chevrolet Monte Carlo struck a group of commuters waiting for the bus shortly before 6.30am, scattering body parts across the street.
Further charges could be added during the course of the ongoing investigation, police said.
They added that Hosey had a lengthy criminal history in Las Vegas, with arrests for possession of marijuana, obstructing a public officer, lewd conduct and larceny within the past two years.
Hosey's car was travelling at an estimated 100 mph before it hit a dip in the road, went airborne and spun onto the nearby bus stop where the commuters were gathered just a minute before Bus 203 was scheduled to arrive.
The Clark County coroner's office today identified one of the dead as Johnni Lee Garner, 49, of Las Vegas. Others who died at the scene included a 65-year-old woman, a 47-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man but they have not yet been named.
Four passengers were in the car at the time of the crash and had to be cut out by emergency crews. Those in the car were identified as Las Vegas residents Akililu Atanaw, 24, Maarig Tewolde, 26, and Wendim Fisenar, 31, and San Diego resident Tamesgen Adam, 22.
Bodies of those killed - many of which were dismembered - were still laying in the road, covered in bright white sheets, late into Thursday morning.
According to the Las Vegas Sun, as rescue crews worked to free Hosey from the wrecked car, the bartender heard him say: 'Did I make it to the liquor store?'
