An illegal alien fleeing from a traffic stop is now facing a homicide charge in Georgia.
The Monday morning routine of a busy intersection in Savannah, Georgia, was shattered by a car crash that ended the life of Dr. Linda Davis, a “beloved” teacher at Hesse K-8 School. The other driver, 38-year-old Oscar Vasquez Lopez, was taken into custody on charges of “first-degree homicide by vehicle, reckless driving, driving without a valid license and failure to obey a traffic control device,” Fox News reported.
The Guatemalan national, who had a final removal order according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), was reportedly attempting to flee from a traffic stop initiated by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at the time of the crash with Davis’s vehicle.

Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin issued a statement on the fatal collision.
“This vehicular homicide is an absolute tragedy and deadly consequence of politicians and the media constantly demonizing ICE officers and encouraging those here illegally to resist arrest—a felony. These dangerous tactics are putting people’s lives at risk. Fleeing from and resisting federal law enforcement is not only a crime but extraordinarily dangerous and puts oneself, our officers, and innocent civilians at risk. Now, an innocent bystander has lost their life,” she said, calling the loss of Davis an “absolute tragedy.”

I’m Sick & at a Loss for Words: AGAIN!!! Democrats will NOT SAY ONE WORD ABOUT THIS…but sure as hell will go ape crap when a protester gets shot & killed interfering (their own choice) with ICE.

Guy should have never run. Now, he’s illegal and going to convicted of manslaughter at the minimum. It’s never smart to try and flee.

Dr. Linda Davis, her life mattered!
The Democrat party is doing everything they can to defend ILLEGAL aliens who have no respect for America. Every country asks that when you enter their country you respect their laws and way of life. America expects no different. https://t.co/6bjDlD09cc— Melodie Ledet (@MelodieLed6843) February 17, 2026
