Police say the victim was a passenger in a car that struck a sport-utility vehicle at a busy intersection.
The Tahoe Daily Tribune reports Roberto Olazaba has been in the El Dorado County Jail in South Lake Tahoe since then because of a probation violation stemming from the accident.
Olazaba's attorney, William Cole, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The driver of the SUV was treated and released at a hospital. Roberto Olazaba was admitted to the hospital for observation.
