Driver Faces Murder Charges After Bus Crash | Durham News

A driver accused of killing two people on a city bus while speeding and under the influence is now facing a devastatingly tragic twist: the news helicopter covering the crash crashed hours later, killing three more — bringing the total death toll to five. The victims, Gage Weida and Daniel Castillo, remembered as kind and joyful souls, were on their way to work when the collision occurred. Investigators are examining both the crash and the helicopter’s descent, while the accused, Bailee Lynn Rios — who has a history of driving and drug-related offenses — remains jailed on $4.1 million bail, with her arraignment postponed.
