Man Convicted in 2006 Toyota Crash Freed From Jail

The Minnesota man convicted in a 2006 Toyota crash that killed three people was freed by a judge on Thursday. Citing new evidence, the judge ordered a new trial for Koua Fong Lee, but Ramsay County prosecutor Susan Gaertner says she will drop all charges.

"Mr. Lee will be a free man," Gaertner said in a statement.

Lee, 32, was sentenced to 8 years in prison for the June 2006 crash. He was driving a 1996 Toyota Camry when it plowed into two vehicles. He has always claimed the car accelerated uncontrollably.

Toyota issued a recall last year for millions of vehicles because of possible unintended acceleration. Lee’s car is not a part of the recall.
