One pedestrian is dead, and another has critical injuries after they were hit by a vehicle in Columbia Heights on Thursday, according to authorities.

The Minnesota State Patrol’s incident report says troopers were called to a crash at 10:36 p.m. Authorities say a southbound BMW convertible on Highway 65 left the roadway near 39th Avenue Northeast, where it hit two people on the sidewalk before it eventually stopped at the tree line.

58-year-old Carrie Lynn Rivero of Minneapolis died as a result of the crash. Law enforcement said 63-year-old James Junior Beller, also of Minneapolis, suffered life-threatening injuries and was brought to Hennepin County Medical Center.

The driver of the BMW was identified by officials as 35-year-old Cody John Jazdzewski, of Minneapolis. He suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the crash and is currently at the Hennepin County Medical Center.

Jazdzewski was charged Friday in Anoka County court with one felony count of criminal vehicular homicide and one felony count of criminal vehicular operation.

According to the criminal complaint, when troopers responded to the crash, Jazdzewski was allegedly slurring his speech and smelled like alcohol, and admitted to having consumed alcohol before driving that evening.

Court records state Jazdzewski took a Personal Breath Test (PBT) which showed a blood alcohol level of .131. The complaint notes that he consented to a blood draw, and the results of that are pending.

Officials say alcohol is suspected as a factor in the crash.
