Tragic Car Crash Claims Lives of High School Sweethearts in Hoffman Estates

An Elgin man has been charged with reckless homicide, aggravated DUI resulting in death, and attempting to disarm a peace officer after a crash in Hoffman Estates that killed recently-graduated high school sweethearts, D'Shaun Tudela and Amelia Mazeikis. The victims' families gathered to remember them at a Schaumburg church. Two other groups involved in the crash were transported to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries. Grief counselors will be available at Schaumburg High School, where the couple just graduated weeks ago.
