Alex Dragaytsev was arrested and charged with aggravated vehicular homicide after a large pileup west of Laramie on I-80 led to two fatalities, but his charges have since been dropped and he was released from police custody.
Albany County Attorney Peggy Trent said Dragaytsev is instead being cited for failure to use caution for hazardous conditions, which carries a $60 fine.
“We did not feel that there was, from the investigation that was completed at this point, that we could proceed with the charge at this point,” Trent said to the AP.
