PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A Sherwood man has been charged with manslaughter and other crimes in connection with a crash that killed a toddler and left several other people injured in Deschutes County.

David William Fincher was arraigned Monday on charges of manslaughter, assault and driving under the influence related to the Sept. 11 crash.

Authorities say the 46-year-old man lost control of a Toyota Tacoma as it turned a corner on Highway 20 and then crossed into oncoming traffic.

The Tacoma collided with a Volkswagen Jetta carrying the 2-year-old girl, who died at the scene. The driver of the Jetta and a 7-year-old boy in the car were taken to a hospital for treatment.

Fincher’s vehicle also hit a Dodge Charger, resulting in two more people being taken to the hospital.
