Khalid Yagobbi was charged with a felony count of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence after authorities said he intentionally drove his vehicle into a group of pedestrians in Long Beach Saturday night.
Police said Yagobbi was speeding eastbound in a white Chevy Bolt in the westbound lanes of Shoreline Drive when he drove through a red light and struck the pedestrians and multiple, occupied vehicles without slowing down at about 6:34 p.m. Saturday at Shoreline Drive and Aquarium Way.
Several other pedestrians were injured and hospitalized, although they were said to be in stable condition. Yagobbi, who remained at the scene, was taken to a hospital for treatment and then sent to the Long Beach Jail, where he was initially arrested on suspicion of murder.
