A man charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of a Hickory woman over the weekend will remain in jail without bond until his next court appearance.
A District Court judge on Monday revoked the $50,000 bond for Enrique Cardenas Zavala, said Hickory police Capt. Clyde Deal. Cardenas Zavala, 20, will remain at the Catawba County jail until his next court appearance, on Oct. 19.
He was charged in a Friday accident that killed 55-year-old Rena Moore. A 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix he was driving ran a red light and crashed into the couple's pickup truck, police said.
Moore's husband, 58-year-old Jerry Moore, remained in critical condition Tuesday evening.
Cardenas Zavala has been charged with driving while impaired, driving after consuming alcohol while under 21, failing to stop at a red light and involuntary manslaughter. His blood-alcohol level was 0.13, Deal said. The legal limit is 0.08.
He could face additional charges, including second-degree murder, pending a police investigation, Deal said.
It was Cardenas Zavala's second DWI in less than 14 months. In August 2005, he was charged with DWI in Catawba County and served 30 days in jail and paid a fine after pleading guilty to a lesser charge of reckless driving to endanger.
