SAN JOSE — Two drivers, one of them riding with his 2-year-old son, were arrested after they got into a street race and caused a crash that killed a taxi passenger Tuesday morning, according to San Jose police.

Jose Castillo-Campos, 24, of San Jose, is being held without bail at the Santa Clara County Main Jail on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter, child endangerment, and exhibition of speed.

Police arrested the second driver, Cesar Ramos Navarro, 22, of San Jose, at his home around 5 p.m. and booked him into jail on charges of manslaughter and exhibition of speed. Ramos Navarro was allegedly driving a 2016 Volkswagen Jetta and fled the scene after the crash.

The collision was reported around 6:30 a.m. shortly after a black Chevy truck driven by Castillo-Campos and a second vehicle were racing northbound on Monterey Road, witnesses told police.

Around the same time, a yellow cab that had just picked up two adult passengers was turning left from Rancho Drive onto southbound Monterey Road, police said.

The Chevy truck broadsided the cab’s rear driver’s side, causing the cab driver to lose control and one of his passengers to be thrown from the vehicle, police said. The truck stopped; the driver of the other racing vehicle left the scene.

The woman who was thrown from the cab was rushed to the hospital and died a short time later. The victim was not immediately identified pending notification of her next of kin.

The second passenger was also taken to the hospital and was treated for serious internal injuries including a ruptured aorta, punctured lung, lacerated liver, and bleeding in his kidney and spleen. The cab driver, Castillo-Campos and his son were not injured.

Tuesday’s collision marks the city’s 37th traffic fatality of the year. The same number of roadway deaths were recorded at the same point in 2017.

Anyone with information about the collision can contact Detective Troy Sirmons at 408-277-4654.
