A Topeka man has been charged with unintentional but reckless second-degree murder and other counts for a June crash that killed a motorcyclist.
Tommy Lynn Sherrill Sr., 51, was charged Tuesday in the June 30 crash that led to the death of motorcyclist Dylan Jay Hernandez, 26. Hernandez died July 11 of complications from massive head trauma suffered when his motorcycle collided with a building at Topeka's municipal airport.
Prosecutors say an investigation showed a truck was involved in causing the crash and that Sherrill had been driving the truck. Sherrill was arrested July 22 and is being held in lieu of $1 million bond.
