A drug dealer has been sentenced to eight years and eight months in prison for causing a deadly Wichita crash while chasing down someone who bolted with a bag of marijuana without paying.
Alejandro Cruz, 19, had the victim’s father on his side. As the sentencing hearing was live-streamed on YouTube this week, Rajon Powell wrote in a chat box that he “would not like to see another life lost in all of this.”
His son, Elias Powell, 19, died from injuries he received in the June 27 car chase and wreck that also hurt two other men with him.
