Ashley Jones, 20, was charged in the death of Francisco Salgado-Hernandez, 31, of Norristown on June 26.

A 20-year-old woman has been charged with causing the June death in Norristown of a 31-year-old man in a multi-vehicle crash while allegedly street racing in a rainstorm, Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele announced Friday.

Around 10:30 that night, Norristown police responded to West Main and Chain Streets for a multi-vehicle crash and found Salgado-Hernandez in cardiac arrest inside a black Honda Civic. Police performed CPR on Salgado-Hernandez and then he was transported to Jefferson Einstein Montgomery Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11:12 p.m.

The two cars allegedly raced each other in heavy rain, with Jones’s vehicle exceeding 80 mph in a 25-mph zone. Jones allegedly failed to navigate a right curve, lost control of her Toyota Highlander and crossed into oncoming traffic.
