BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — A 23-year-old man is now charged with Murder and Manslaughter following an indictment connected to a deadly crash that killed two people in Buffalo.

Devin Ford was arraigned last week. He is accused of causing the collision that killed a rideshare driver and passenger.

Authorities say Ford, the solo occupant of his vehicle, was speeding northbound on Main Street just after midnight on March 21. They say he crashed into another vehicle at the intersection of Humboldt Parkway. Investigators say Ford was also driving without his headlights on at the time of the crash.
