The victim in the accident is the brother of Lee Fabricius 03/11/1969, who was driving the truck.   At this time, we believe alcohol consumption to be a factor in the crash but that cannot be confirmed until toxicology reports are reviewed.  Mr. Lee Fabricius is in custody at a local hospital. Because he is in the hospital a picture of Mr. Fabricius is not available at this time.  Once Mr. Fabricius is released from the hospital he will be booked into the Aurora Municipal Jail on the charge of Vehicular Homicide.
