Driver charged in fatal seven-vehicle crash on I-94 ramp in Minneapolis – InForum

MINNEAPOLIS – A man from St. Paul was charged with criminal vehicular homicide in the Oct. 23 seven-vehicle crash on the Interstate 94 off-ramp in Minneapolis that killed one person and injured 10 others.

The crash occurred around 9:15 p.m. on the ramp from eastbound I-94 to Lyndale Avenue.

Prosecutors allege that 29-year-old Talon Walker was driving a Chevrolet Avalanche down the ramp at about 100 mph. He allegedly hit two vehicles that were pushed into others. A total of seven vehicles were involved in the incident.

The driver of one of the struck vehicles – 26-year-old Natalie Gubbay from Minneapolis – died as a result of her injuries.

Ten people were injured, including Walker and a woman who was sitting in the passenger seat of his vehicle. A two-year-old boy traveling in another car suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

State troopers allegedly found a half-empty alcohol bottle on the driver’s side floorboard of Walker’s car.

Walker was hospitalized after the crash and booked into the Hennepin County Jail on Oct. 24.

Prosecutors say Walker’s driver’s license has already been revoked.
