Man Dies, 19-Year-Old Rayce Kent Arrested in Suspected DUI Crash on Spokane County

Spokane, WA (August 06, 2021) – On Wednesday evening, a man dies and police arrested 19-year-old Rayce Kent in a rollover crash on Spokane Road.

The Spokane County Sheriff’s Office said Kent was driving his car with 2 other occupants along Spokane-Cheney Road.

Authorities say, Kent was driving with excessive speed. As a result, he lost control of his vehicle causing it to rollover multiple times.

Fortunately, the front passenger was not seriously injured in the crash. However, an adult passenger at the back of the vehicle died at the scene.

Authorities investigating the scene took note of all the evidence of the crash. Similarly, officers interviewed several witnesses.

Meanwhile, investigating officers collected evidence from the scene which includes a 500-foot stretch of skid marks and debris. They suspect Kent may have been driving impaired, and got a search warrant for a blood sample.

Police says that the driver may have been driving under the influence.

After Kent got out of the hospital, the authorities promptly arrested him. They charged him with vehicular homicide and booked him at the Spokane County Jail.

Dealing with Tragic Accidents

It is clear now more than ever that one person’s negligence can have devastating effects on other individuals. This is quite common in accidents that result in death. Therefore, it is crucial that the bereaved becomes aware that they may file a wrongful death suit.

A wrongful death lawsuit gives the loved ones of a departed family member some semblance of justice.

“The aftermath of tragic accidents can make everything difficult for a family. The last thing most families want to deal with is piles of paperwork, questions from insurance companies or defense attorneys, and attempting to obtain police reports” says Mark Sweet, an award-winning attorney at Sweet Lawyers.

Mark adds, “Grieving and handling legal claims don’t exactly go hand in hand, and this is why hiring an experienced attorney can not only provide you with peace of mind that you have a fighter in your corner but also having someone to make sure that your rights are respected and that justice will be served.”

He explains, “Having legal representation after such a traumatic event will provide your family the space to heal while ensuring that justice is brought to your loved one.”
