A man who fled the country after allegedly killing a 6-year-old girl while street racing in Menlo Park in 2009 has been arrested on Tuesday.
Shannon Steven Fox was wanted in connection with the death of Lisa Xavier in a crash at the intersection of Willow Road and Bayfront Expressway on the afternoon of Nov. 12, 2009.
A street race between two vehicles ended when one of them ran a red light and crashed into a car carrying Xavier and her mother.
The young girl died the next day and her mother was seriously injured.
Police say Fox fled the area and eventually the country, and has been a fugitive for nearly a decade.
More information will be released at a news conference at 9 a.m. Wednesday.
