Oklahoma State crash suspect faces 4 second-degree murder charges

The fund had raised more than $24,000 by Sunday night.

Police are waiting on toxicology reports, but said they hope that OSBI will speed up the process.

A vehicle plowed into a crowd Saturday, sending a few spectators flying through the air.

Chambers, of Stillwater, is scheduled to appear Monday in Payne County District Court.

Tony Coleman, Chambers’ attorney, said he has talked to his client about whether she had been drinking at the time of the incident.

Adacia Chambers was initially arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after the crash Saturday morning in Stillwater that also injured dozens of people.

Coleman says he was told that Chambers had previously contemplated suicide, although he does not feel Saturday’s event was a suicide attempt.

In a statement on Sunday, police identified the three adults who were killed as Nakita Prabhakar, 23, of Edmond, Oklahoma; Bonnie Jean Stone, 65; and Marvin Lyle Stone, 65, both of Stillwater.

“She could have even blacked out”, Coleman said.

“In my opinion, Ms. Chambers suffers from a mental illness”, Coleman said.

Adacia Avery Chambers, 25, allegedly drove a gray Hyundai Elantra into a throng watching Saturday’s Oklahoma State University homecoming parade in Stillwater, about 65 miles (105 km) southwest of Oklahoma City. OSU players bowed their heads in prayer and the American flag was lowered to half-mast in honor of those injured and killed in the homecoming parade crash. She was charged with driving under the influence and police await blood test results to determine if she was impaired by drugs or alcohol.

The father of a woman accused of crashing her auto into the crowd attending the Oklahoma State homecoming parade says he can’t believe his daughter could have done it. He believes Chambers was home by 10 p.m. Friday after joining the college town’s homecoming festivities.

Mr Coleman added that exactly what happened is unclear, because Chambers does not remember anything from that moment until minutes after the crash when officers helped her out of her vehicle. Five people were in critical condition as of Sunday evening. Mr. Schmitz’s wife and other family members were injured lightly, he said. “The screaming… and a lot of chaos”.

Anthea Lewis had tears in her eyes on Sunday as she placed a child’s hat with an Oklahoma State University logo at the base of a makeshift memorial where a auto crashed into a homecoming parade crowd a day earlier.

Nash Lucas’ mother, Nicolette Strauch, is a student at Oklahoma State University works in the Parking and Transit Services department there.

He said UCO’s Center for Counseling and Well-Being is available for anyone who needs support or counseling. In one case from 2010, a man was seemingly intoxicated and uncooperative, and when police arrested him he broke his wrist, which happened to have a bracelet identifying him as diabetic.

Police did not comment on the details of the charges.

About four dozen people were injured in the incident, five of them critically.

He said the night before the accident, Chambers was participating in a homecoming tradition called Walk Around, where Stillwater residents look at the decorations in different neighborhoods.

Four people died, including a two-year-old boy, while at least 47 others were injured.
