Broward Sheriff’s Office Traffic Homicide Unit detectives arrested Anderson Christopher Delinois for his involvement in a fatal crash that left a man dead and injured a woman in Dania Beach on March 1.
At approximately 1:17 a.m., on Tuesday, March 1, a 2021 Toyota RAV4, driven by Delinois, was traveling westbound on Sheridan Street in the left thru lane, approaching Dixie Highway. A 2008 BMW 328i was stopped at the intersection of Dixie Highway and Sheridan Street, awaiting the left turn signal to proceed north on Dixie Highway.
According to detectives, the RAV4 was seen traveling westbound from A1A at a high rate of speed without lights. As the vehicle approached Dixie Highway, the left turn arrow for eastbound traffic turned green and the BMW proceeded to make the left turn northbound. That’s when the RAV4 struck the front passenger side of the BMW in a T-bone style collision.
The RAV4 rolled over before coming to a rest. Delinois and his passenger were transported to the hospital by Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue. Deliniois suffered critical injuries and the passenger sustained injuries that were not life-threatening. The driver of the BMW was pronounced deceased.
Excessive speed and impairment appear to be contributing factors to the cause of the crash.
On Sunday, July 10, Delinois was arrested. He faces several charges including vehicular homicide, aggravated fleeing and eluding causing death, reckless driving causing injury and two counts of reckless driving causing property damage.
