DUI suspect flees from CHP, causes three-car collision, fatality and injuries
Monday, April 20th, 2009.
Issue 17, Volume 13.
A suspected drunk driver led California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers on a high speed pursuit down Interstate 15 on Sunday, April 19, before causing a three car collision resulting in a fatality and minor injuries on SR76.
At approximately 7 p.m., Silvero M. Romero, a 23-year-old from Vista, was pulled over by a Temecula CHP officer for an enforcement stop north of the Rainbow Valley Road exit. During the enforcement stop, Romero drove off in his 2001 Ford Explorer and fled southbound on the I-15 at speeds of over 100 mph.
According to a CHP report by Officer M. Latulippe, Romero used all lanes of the freeway, including the right shoulder to elude the officer.
Romero exited the freeway and headed west on SR76, running a red light at the intersection of SR76 and Old Highway 395 at a high speed. The CHP officer lost sight of the Explorer as it headed west.
Seconds later, Romero's vehicle crossed over the double yellow lines into the eastbound lane, where he collided head on with a 1999 Toyota Pickup driven by 27-year-old Douglas Tarry of Moreno Valley.
Romero continued driving westbound, where he collided with another vehicle, a 2004 F-350, being driven by James F. Riley, a 50-year-old male from Barstow.
Romero lost control of the Explorer, resulting in it overturning and traveling down an embankment on the south side of SR76.
Even though Romero suffered major injuries in the incident, including having his left leg severed just below the knee, he attempted to flee the scene on foot, but collapsed 50 feet away from the Explorer.
Tarry, the driver of the Toyota pickup, was transported to Palomar Medical Center where, despite aggressive medical and surgical care he perished a short time later. Tarry was a musician with a band known as Agrypnia.
The couple in the F-350 pickup, James and Jennifer Riley, sustained minor injuries in the collision.
Romero was transported to Palomar Medical Center and will be charged with felony manslaughter, felony DUI, felony evading arrest, and felony hit-and-run.
The incident led to SR76 being closed for approximately eight and a half hours for investigation of collision and removal of the vehicles involved.
