Las Vegas judge today denied release on house arrest — but did set bail — for a 19-year-old man accused of DUI-related death in a traffic collision over the weekend that killed a Las Vegas woman.
Ivan Pantoja-Lizarraga was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol involving an accident with death and failure to drive in the travel lane.
Pantoja-Lizarrago will have his next court date at 7:30 a.m. Friday, for a status check hearing to see if prosecutors have filed formal charges. His bail was set at $25,000 cash or $250,000 surety.
Police say that about about 12:33 a.m. Saturday, Pantoja-Lizarraga was driving a 1999 Mercedes Benz E320 north on Upland Boulevard when his car crashed into Maria Sotelo, 46, who was standing behind her Ford Ranger, which was parked in front of a residential driveway on Upland Boulevard north of Mayflower Lane…..MORE
