Driver Charged With DUI-Manslaughter in I-95 Crash That Killed Woman, 26

A man has been charged with manslaughter and driving under the influence following a crash on I-95 that killed a 26-year-old woman.

David A. Tobul, 25, of Springfield, Virginia, was driving under the influence early Saturday when he rear-ended a Mitsubishi Outlander SUV near the 166 mile marker, police say.

The Toyota caught fire, and the Mitsubishi overturned, police say.

The driver of the Mitsubishi, Kaitlyn R. Taylor, of Jessup, Maryland, died at the scene. She was wearing a seat belt, police say.

Tobul was not injured in the crash. Two passengers, a man and a woman, were taken to a hospital and treated for injuries that were not life threatening, police say.

The crash is still under investigation and additional charges are pending, police say.

Taylor was originally from Georgia.

"She lit up the room when she walked in. Her smile could touch your heart instantly," a friend told News4.
