A 54-year-old man is now charged in the death of a woman who was killed in a crash on Highway 58 last year.

William H. Young faces vehicular homicide, aggravated assault and reckless endangerment charges, according to a news release from the Chattanooga Police Department.

The accident in March 2014 killed 55-year-old Donna Giarrusso at the scene. Her vehicle was attempting to cross the southbound lane of Highway 58 from Champion Road when it was struck by a four-door truck traveling southbound on Highway 58.

The driver of the truck, Young, was treated for injuries.

Police say the investigation is ongoing.
