PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — A 21-year-old man was arrested in a Port St. Lucie crash that killed a 71-year-old driver last year, police announced Thursday.

Investigators said McEnroe Duroseau of Fort Pierce was driving more than 80 mph in a 35 mph zone in the 700 block of Northwest Selvitz Road on Aug. 25.

Duroseau sideswiped another vehicle in the opposite lane of travel and then hit a third vehicle head-on, according to police.

The 71-year-old driver of the third vehicle was taken to a hospital in critical condition but died from his injuries three days later.

Investigators said Duroseau was arrested last week and faces a charge of vehicular homicide.

Police did not release the name of the driver who was killed.
