SALT LAKE CITY Criminal charges were filed Tuesday against a man accused of hitting and killing a Salt Lake doctor while driving under the influence of drugs.
Mitchell Garrett Solstad, 26, whose address is listed as unknown, is charged in 3rd District Court with manslaughter, a second-degree felony; reckless driving, possession of drug paraphernalia, and causing a crash, class B misdemeanors; not having insurance, a class C misdemeanor; and driving with an expired license and no registration, both infractions.
