A 25-year-old man has pleaded guilty to causing a wrong-way crash that led to the death of a Los Angeles sheriff's recruit and injured several other recruits who were out on a run.
Nicholas Gutierrez of Diamond Bar, California, pleaded guilty Monday to one count of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence and nine counts of reckless driving causing injuries, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office said in a statement. He was ordered to receive an eight-year suspended prison sentence and be placed on probation for five years, the statement said.
