CARROLL COUNTY, Ky. — A man accused of causing a deadly DUI crash in Northern Kentucky is now facing multiple charges and an immigration hold, according to authorities.
Luis Antonio Orduno, 33, was charged after a Wednesday morning crash on Jay Louden Road that left one man dead, according to Kentucky State Police.
Crash Leaves Passenger Dead
Investigators say Orduno lost control of his vehicle, veering off the roadway and crashing into a nearby structure. Officials reported the vehicle also struck a gas meter and a metal dumpster, indicating it was traveling at a high rate of speed.
A passenger in the vehicle, Luis Mayoral Moguel, 31, of Glencoe, was pronounced dead at the scene.
DUI and Multiple Charges Filed
Orduno now faces several charges, including:
- Vehicular homicide while under the influence
- Aggravated DUI
- First-degree criminal mischief
- Driving without a license
- Failure to maintain insurance
Authorities said he admitted to consuming alcohol prior to the crash.
Blood Alcohol Level More Than Twice Legal Limit
Court documents indicate Orduno underwent testing at a hospital, where his blood alcohol content was measured at 0.184 — more than twice the legal limit.
ICE Detainer Placed
Officials confirmed Orduno also has a detainer issued by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
An ICE detainer allows federal authorities to request that local law enforcement hold an individual beyond their scheduled release time so immigration officials can take custody.
Investigation and Court Proceedings Ongoing
The victim’s body was sent to the state medical examiner’s office in Louisville for autopsy, with toxicology results pending.
Orduno is currently being held at the Carroll County Detention Center and is scheduled to appear in court on April 22.
