Ukrainian charged with Seven Counts of Negligent Homicide
Once more the trial of Volodymyr Zhukovskyy Arrested on Seven Counts of Negligent Homicide has been delayed. The courts have ruled that there will be no testimony at trial after a long convoluted set of motions. The state charged Zhukovskyy with driving the vehicle that rammed into motorcyclists. Seven died.
Zhukovskyy, 25, of West Springfield, Mass., is charged with seven counts of negligent homicide, seven counts of negligent homicide-DUI, seven counts of manslaughter, and two counts of reckless conduct with a deadly weapon in the collision that claimed the lives of seven members of the JarHeads Motorcycle Club on Route 2 in Randolph. He has pleaded not guilty to all counts.
MSP fugitive unit has arrested VOLODYMYR ZHUKOVSKYY, 23, of West Springfield at his residence as a fugitive from justice. ZHUKOVSKY is charged in NH warrant with last week’s crash in Randolph, NH that killed 7 motorcycle riders the police said.
The Original Case:
Concord, NH – Deputy Attorney General Jane E. Young, Coos County Attorney John McCormick and New Hampshire State Police Colonel Christopher J. Wagner announce that Volodymyr Zhukovskyy (age 23) was arrested at his home located at 90 Newbridge Street, West Springfield, MA at approximately 8:00 a.m. on Monday, June 24, 2019, by the Massachusetts State Police Fugitive Apprehension Unit. Mr. Zhukovskyy was the driver of the truck involved in the fatal accident on Friday, June 21, 2019 in Randolph, New Hampshire.
Mr. Zhukovskyy was taken into custody on a fugitive from justice charge. That charge is based on an arrest warrant that had been issued on June 24, 2019, charging him with seven counts of negligent homicide.
The charges and allegations are merely accusations, and Mr. Zhukovskyy is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
