FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Los Banos police say a man was killed by a drunk driver who was street racing Sunday morning.

Officers arrested Marcus Perez-Negrete, 20, of Clovis after the crash. He was booked into the Merced County Jail on several charges, including DUI and vehicular manslaughter. He is being held on more than $400,000 bail.
