The man driving the other vehicle involved in the fatal Frazier Avenue crash on Thanksgiving weekend 2023 testified in the trial for Randy Vega on Wednesday.

Vega, 45, is on trial for charges including vehicular homicide with intoxication and reckless aggravated assault.

Vega is accused of losing control of his minivan and hitting three pedestrians who were visiting from Jacksonville, Florida. When police tested Vega’s blood alcohol level three to four hours after the crash, it was reported at the legal limit.

Vega tried to cut over to the left lane, according to a police report, and struck the right front bumper of a truck.

Ana Posso Rodriguez, 41, and her son, Jonathan Devia, 1, were killed. The husband and father, Octavio Devia Paz, survived but suffered permanent injuries.
