Two men sentenced to probation in Rancho Mirage crash that killed bicyclist
Two young men who caused a collision that killed a bicyclist in Rancho Mirage pleaded guilty today to vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence and were immediately sentenced to two years probation in lieu of jail time.
Luis Armando Castaneda, 23, and Alex Isidro Quiroz, 24, were arrested almost a year after 32-year-old Cathedral City resident William Campbell was killed while riding his bike in
December 2018. Authorities alleged Campbell was fatally struck while the pair were illegally street racing, but prosecutors never filed charges to that effect.
Quiroz additionally faced a sentence-enhancing allegation of fleeing the scene of a crime. Both men pleaded guilty Wednesday at the Larson Justice Center in Indio and not as part of a deal with prosecutors.
