The fatal wreck occurred on April 12 when Singh allegedly attempted an illegal U-turn in his tractor trailer on a busy Florida highway. Surveillance video shows the truck entering an “Official Use Only” cut-through, blocking nearly all lanes of traffic.

A black minivan traveling behind the truck crashed into the trailer at full speed, killing all three people inside.

Singh has been charged with three counts of vehicular homicide. Authorities said he initially remained at the scene but later left Florida, traveling to California before being apprehended.

Investigators reported that Singh entered the United States illegally in 2018. After the crash, he was questioned by authorities and was unable to demonstrate proficiency in English or the ability to read U.S. highway signs, despite holding a commercial trucking license.
