ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — The man investigators said hid in the Dominican Republic for nearly 13 years after bonding out of jail is now back behind bars in Central Florida.
Carey Price was taken into custody last week by the U.S. Marshals Service and the Central Florida Fugitive Task Force.
From there, he was taken to Atlanta and then the Orange County Jail at about 7 p.m. Tuesday.
Price was arrested in August 2003 after troopers said he crashed his car into three pedestrians who were working in a construction zone on State Road 417 near University Boulevard.
Grady Hill, 42, was killed, while two others, Paul Kimbro, 44, and Charles Starrett, 43, were critically injured.
Investigators said Price ran over Hill.
Price had a blood alcohol level of 0.201 percent the night of the crash, troopers said.
He was arrested on charges of DUI manslaughter and vehicular homicide, but fled the country shortly after bonding out of jail, according to investigators.
Hill’s sister recently received a tip through Facebook about Price’s whereabouts, and that tip eventually led to his capture.
Investigators said Price was living under the name Jay Rice.
Price is being held in jail on a "no bond" status.
