North Aurora man charged in fatal Batavia crash

A North Aurora man charged in connection with a fatal crash Sunday had a blood alcohol content more than twice the legal limit, prosecutors said.

Luis Aca-Osorio, 38, remains in the Kane County jail on $500,000 bail. He is charged with two felony counts of aggravated DUI, reckless homicide and two counts of misdemeanor DUI. He is scheduled to appear before a Kane County judge on May 25, a spokesman for the Kane County state's attorney said.

Osorio was driving a Chevrolet van south on the 400 block of South River Street in Batavia Sunday afternoon when he struck a motorcycle in front of him, Batavia police said. The motorcyclist, whose name has not yet been released, was ejected from his motorcycle, which was pinned under the van. The motorcyclist was transported to an area hospital where he later died.

A breath test showed Aca-Osorio had a BAC of .204, and police found open containers of alcohol in his car, according to the Kane County state's attorney's office. Aca-Osorio also acknowledged to police that he had been drinking, officials said.
