(LOS ANGELES) — A 17-year-old Lamborghini driver has admitted to vehicular manslaughter in connection with a Los Angeles car crash that killed a 32-year-old woman, prosecutors said.
The teenager involved in the deadly crash admitted the petition Friday — the equivalent of a guilty plea for juvenile court — and was placed on house arrest, the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office said. He is expected to return to juvenile court on June 30 for a disposition setting hearing. He’ll wear an ankle monitor while he awaits sentencing, ABC Los Angeles station KABC reported.
The driver of the Lamborghini, who has not been publicly identified because of his age, was arrested on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter on Feb. 23, police said. The district attorney’s office filed charges on April 7 after completing the investigation.
