VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) - A 38-year-old man has been charged with involuntary manslaughter after he crashed into a security vehicle at a Navy base in Virginia, killing a sailor.
The Virginian-Pilot reports that Nathaniel Lee Campbell, of Shenandoah, has been charged in the death of Petty Officer 3rd Class Oscar Jesus Temores.
