DETROIT (FOX 2):Sharif Ali-Dinar, a Wayne State University employee, was killed in a fatal crash near Woodward and Warren one week prior.
We found out that Antoine Bradley, the suspect, is now charged with reckless driving that results in death. Prosecutors claim Bradley was speeding at the intersection during his court appearance on Saturday.
We know:
Assistant prosecutor Lisa Coyle stated, “The defendant’s car’s data recorder shows him going 69 miles per hour two seconds before the crash, even though the speed limit in that area is 30 miles per hour.”
According to the prosecution, Bradley didn’t apply the brakes until 1.5 seconds before contact.
Bradley bowed his head in court as his lawyer brought up Ali-Dinar’s death.
The age of 31 entered a not guilty plea. He was sorry, according to his lawyer. Nevertheless, the prosecutor believes he poses a threat to the public.
“He made a decision to run a red light that put other innocent bystanders, pedestrians and other motorists in danger,” Coyle stated.
Sharif Ali-Dinar was a crash victim.
After graduating from Wayne State, Sharif Ali-Dinar has been employed there since 2009 as a financial assistance specialist.
“He brought positivity and joy to everyone who had the privilege of working with him,” said Dr. Kimberly Andrews Espy, president of WSU, in a statement. We shall sincerely miss Sharif’s kind nature, generosity, and unfailing support for others.
Back on campus, the fatal collision has increased awareness of walking at Woodward and Warren among students like Travis Smart.
“There s ignorant drivers, but that s kind of everywhere at this point so it s part of life,” Smart stated. “So you kinda have to adapt and get used to it to prepare yourself for life.”
Antoine Bradley was granted a $50,000 cash bond by a judge. His next court date is January 28.
