A 20-year-old Arkansas man faces a homicide charge in a crash last month that left a passenger dead, court documents show.
An arrest warrant for Alex Harper of Mabelvale was issued Tuesday, according to Pope County Circuit Court filings.
Authorities said the wreck happened about 12:40 a.m. Feb. 5 as Harper was driving a vehicle in a field in the 500 block of Industrial Boulevard in Russellville.
At the scene, three passengers identified Harper as the driver of the vehicle, which flipped after he lost control, according to an affidavit.
Zachary Turner, 21, of Bauxite was discovered lying on the ground when officers arrived. He was taken to a Russellville hospital but later transferred to UAMS Medical Center in Little Rock, where he died of his injuries hours later, authorities previously said.
Harper was arrested on an underage driving under the influence charge.
