Virginia Teen Charged With Second-Degree Murder in Crash

Posted: Updated:

POWHATAN, Va. (AP) - Police say a teenager involved in a police pursuit that resulted in a fatal crash has been charged with second-degree murder.
    
State Police spokesman Sgt. Stephan Vick tells media outlets that 18-year-old Andre T. Eanes faces multiple charges in several jurisdictions. In Powhatan County, Vick says Eanes has been charged with second-degree murder, grand larceny, and felony eluding a police officer.
    
State police say a trooper noticed a vehicle driven by Eanes going 79 mph in a 35 mph zone in the Cumberland Courthouse area Tuesday.
    
Officials say the suspect made a quick lane change and struck another car. The two occupants of the second vehicle were transported to a hospital. Authorities say 73-year-old Thomas R. Rutledge later died.
    
It isn't clear if Eanes has an attorney.
