3 Doors Down bassist arrested and charged with vehicular homicide

3 Doors Down bassist Todd Harrell has been arrested for a DUI (driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs).

Harrell was arrested late in the evening on April 19 and is now being charged with vehicular homicide.

According to the police report, Harrell was speeding down a Nashville highway, when he hit a pickup truck. The truck proceeded to veer off the road and turn over. The truck’s driver was admitted into hospital shortly after the incident, where he died from his injuries.

Harrell, 41, told police that he had been drinking hard cider on top of taking prescription Xanax and the painkiller, Lortab. Additionally, a plastic bag was found in his car, containing Oxycodone, Oxymorphone, and more Xanax.

Last year he was arrested for a DUI following another crash.

Harrell is now being held under a bail of $100k, after being charged with vehicular homicide and bringing controlled substances into the jail.
