Fight A DUI

Steven Edward Latham, 29, of Conway SC, was granted a $120,000 bond Tuesday after being arrested Sunday for two counts of felony DUI and a violation of the seat belt law following a crash that killed Porter Lee Richardson (39) and his wife Donna (38).

Latham, driving a Chevrolet Blazer, is accused of disregarding a traffic light and hitting a Chevrolet Malibu at 7:30 a.m. last Thursday. Porter Lee Richardson, 39, and his wife, Donna Richardson, 38, of Conway, were riding in the Malibu and were both killed in the crash.

Latham was flown from the scene of the accident to the Medical University of South Carolina, officials said. It was unclear how much time he spent at MUSC, because his identity was not available until Monday.

The Richardsons had just dropped off Porter Richardson’s son at the outlet stores before the crash.

Senior Trooper Sonny Collins with the Highway Patrol said authorities would not release any more information, including the results of any blood-alcohol tests, until Latham’s case goes to court.
