A man in eastern Pennsylvania has been charged with homicide by vehicle while driving under the influence following a crash that killed three people last week.

Authorities say that 25 year-old Anthony Bruno had a blood alcohol content of 0.23 percent, almost three times the legal limit, when his pick-up truck collided with a car early Thursday morning in Bethlehem Township, about fifty miles north of Philadelphia. Prosecutors alleged that Bruno ran at least two red lights before he crashed into a car driven by 22 year-old Chad Horne, of Freehold, New Jersey. Horne was killed instantly, as were his two passengers, 52 year-old Robin Villegas, of Staten Island, New York and 43 year-old Terri Buskirk, of Bethlehem Township.

Bruno remains in Northampton County Prison, his bail is set at $25,000. It is unclear whether he has obtained legal representation.
