A Mobile County teen previously charged with manslaughter now faces a murder charge after allegedly driving drunk during a fatal crash in November.

The upgraded charges for the 17-year-old were confirmed by the Mobile County District Attorney’s Office.

“We presented all of the evidence to a Mobile County Grand Jury and they chose to indict as murder,” the district attorney’s office said.

The fatal accident occurred Nov. 23 when Nolan McDavid, 19, collided head on with the 17-year-old, officials say.

McDavid was pronounced dead at the scene of the wreck. At the time of his passing McDavid was attending college at the University of South Alabama.

According to Fox10 News, an Alabama Law Enforcement Agency state trooper testified that the teen was allegedly drunk at the time of the accident.

The 17-year-old allegedly had a blood alcohol content level of .111 and was driving 100 miles per hour, according to court testimony.
