Burgos has warrant for arrest after car accident

Quote:
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic -- An arrest warrant was issued Friday for New York Mets pitcher Ambiorix Burgos on charges stemming from a hit-and-run accident that killed two women.

Burgos is accused of abandoning the victims and fleeing, charges that can carry six months to two years in prison, Prosecutor Raul Quiroz told The Associated Press.

Wow, this is horrible. I hope they find him somehow.

Re: Burgos has warrant for arrest after car accident

The Mets are investigating the incident:

Quote:
The Mets said Thursday they are withholding judgment, pending the results of police and internal investigations into circumstances involving their pitcher, Ambiorix Burgos, and a fatal accident in the Dominican Republic.

The 24-year-old native of the Dominican was, according to authorities there, driving an SUV when it slammed into two women who later died of their injuries. Local police were searching for Burgos, according to an Associated Press report.

This could be the best way to do it, wait to see what happens before any decisions are made. That way they don't make a rash decision.

Re: Burgos has warrant for arrest after car accident

I hate to triple post, but Burgos has turned himself in to the Dominican police:

Quote:
The mother of a Dominican woman killed last week when struck by an SUV has told local police her daughter and another woman were run down intentionally by Ambiorix Burgos, the Mets pitcher. That accusation preceded Burgos turning himself in to authorities in the Dominican on Tuesday night.

The police say Burgos was involved in a hit-and-run accident that killed two women in the town of Nagua, 110 miles north of Santo Domingo, according to a report by The Associated Press. The report quotes prosecutor Raul Quiroz as saying Burgos was being questioned about the incident, and that Eudosia Ruane, mother of 29-year-old Angely Fana, had told the news agency that she had filed a report with police, alleging homicide. She told police, the AP reported, her daughter had refused to date Burgos, the 24-year-old relief pitcher who appeared in 17 games with the Mets in 2007.

I'm glad to heard that he did. I can only wonder what will happen now.

Re: Burgos has warrant for arrest after car accident

Yikes, she didnt want to date him so he ran her over??
Has he ever been in any sort of trouble before, like maybe domestic violence?

I have no idea. I hope not, but you never know. I just hope that if he gets off, he doesn't do it again.
