WAHPETON, N.D. – A South Dakota man is facing charges of leaving the scene of a double fatality crash after his pickup rear-ended a motorcycle with two people aboard in southeastern North Dakota.
The North Dakota Highway Patrol said the crash happened at 11 p.m. Saturday on a highway about 6 miles west of Hankinson and 6 miles east of Lidgerwood.
The two people on the motorcycle, 45-year-old Corey Volesky and 40-year-old Amber Krause Volesky, died at the scene. Both are residents of Wyndmere.
The patrol says the pickup driver, 41-year-old Roberto Corona Eguiza from Veblen, S.D., fled on foot and was apprehended a few hours later. He has not been formally charged with fleeing. The patrol says other charges are possible.
