VERNAL, Utah (AP) -- Uintah County prosecutors have charged a Vernal woman with negligent homicide for the November car accident that killed a local softball coach.
Uintah County Attorney JoAnn Stringham filed the single count against Aimee Rowell on Wednesday, according to story from the Vernal Express Web site. Negligent homicide is a class A misdemeanor.
Prosecutors say Uintah High School softball coach Claye Robb was out for an evening walk on Nov. 21 when he was struck from behind by a truck driven by Rowell. They say Rowell, 24, also hit a power pole after hitting Robb.
The Utah State Court Web site shows Rowell is scheduled for an arraignment in 8th District Court Monday.
