The vehicle continued to drive after the impact and collided head-on with a car carrying the family of Mr. Choi, a Korean national, 25.
As a result of the accident, Mr. Choi died at the scene, and his wife, Lexi Waldrup, who was a passenger, sustained serious injuries. The wrong-way driver, Browning, also died, and her passenger suffered serious injuries.
According to the donation site GoFundMe, the couple, Mr. and Mrs. Choi, were newlyweds who married in June. Mrs. Choi, Waldrup, was pregnant at the time of the accident and is receiving treatment in the intensive care unit, but both the mother and fetus are in critical condition.
