Judge denies pre-trial release of man charged with fatal crash in Glenview

The suspect allegedly fatally collided with the victim at E Lake Ave and Meadow Ln on May 12

Chicago Car Accident Lawyer

GLENVIEW, IL – The man who allegedly fatally collided with a teen driver at E Lake Ave and Meadow Ln on May 12 was denied pre-trial release on Thursday, according to WGN 9.

Taeyoung Kim was reportedly driving west on E Lake Ave at 90 mph above the speed limit while impaired when he hit a vehicle driven by a 17-year-old male. The collision split the victim’s car in half.

Rescue crews pronounced the 17-year-old dead at the scene and transported his girlfriend to an area hospital.

Authorities charged Kim with DUI causing death, aggravated DUI causing great bodily harm, reckless homicide, and reckless driving.

Kim will be back in court on August 27.
