An Indian-origin truck driver is facing charges of vehicular homicide in the US after three people were killed when he allegedly took a wrong turn while driving a truck on a Florida highway. Harjinder Singh, 28, who fled to California after the incident, has been brought back to Florida following arrest, the New York Post reported on Thursday. 

"He thought he could run. @GovRonDeSantis and I brought him back to face justice," Lt Governor Jay Collins said in a post on social media. "3 innocent people were killed in Florida because Gavin Newsom's California DMV issued an illegal alien a Commercial Driver's License – this state of governance is asinine," Tricia McLaughlin, the Assistant Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, said in a post.

"How many more innocent people have to die before @GavinNewsom stops playing games with the safety of the American public? We pray for the victims and their families. Secretary Noem and DHS are working around the clock to protect the public and get these criminal illegal aliens out of America," McLaughlin posted.
