A Chula Vista man who crashed a car while fleeing from Border Patrol officers, causing the deaths of two immigrants, pleaded guilty to federal charges Thursday.
Sergio Josue Palomera, 23, fled from the Border Patrol on Oct. 22 after he was spotted loading the migrants into his car near the U.S.-Mexico border, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
When law enforcement attempted to pull him over on state Route 905 in Otay Mesa, prosecutors say Palomera sped away, with his car at one point reaching over 110 mph in a 65 mph zone.
He ultimately lost control and the car rolled over. One of the migrants, an unidentified woman, was ejected and died at the scene. The other, an unidentified man, died at a hospital that night.
Palomera is slated for sentencing July 2.
