According to an arrest report from the Miami Police Department, the crash occurred around 6:53 p.m. on June 10 in the area of Southwest 19th Street and 21st Avenue.
Andres Roberto Fiallo Estupinan, 36, was arrested the night of the crash, but had been hospitalized prior to being booked at TGK.
According to police, Fiallo Estupinan was behind the wheel of a 2012 gray Volkswagen Passat, and was traveling at a high rate of speed when he hit a male pedestrian from behind who was running along the westside of the roadway.
The impact of the crash sent the pedestrian, identified as Andrew Loretta, 50, airborne, while severing both of his legs, an arrest report stated.
Fiallo Estupinan then struck a parked ice cream truck, which subsequently hit a parked Toyota, authorities said.
According to the report, Fiallo Estupinan made no attempt to brake to avoid the collision and then struck another vehicle -- a white Mercedes-Benz -- that was parked on the west swale of Southwest 21st Avenue and 18th Street.
Loretta was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
According to the report, Fiallo Estupinan ran to Shenandoah Park after the final collision, where several witnesses stopped him and held him down until police arrived.
Miami Fire Rescue crews took Fiallo Estupinan and one woman who was inside the ice cream truck to the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital.
Police said Fiallo Estupinan had a fractured ankle and the woman sustained a skull fracture.
According to online jail records, Fiallo Estupinan faces charges of leaving the scene of a crash resulting in death, leaving the scene of a crash resulting in serious bodily injury, vehicular homicide and reckless driving.
As of Tuesday morning, his bond was listed as “to be set.”
