Man charged in street racing death pleads innocent

Richard Frazer

TACOMA, Wash.  -- A young man from Spanaway has pleaded innocent to vehicular homicide in a street racing death east of Tacoma.

Pierce County Superior Court Judge Thomas J. Felnagle released 21-year-old Richard Allen Frazer after the arraignment Tuesday.

Investigators believe Frazer accepted a challenge from 19-year-old Cameron Harbin to race last fall on a residential street. They were going 100 mph before lost control, crashed and died.

Frazer is accused of engaging in an illegal activity that resulted in another person's death. He failed to show up for his arraignment last week, but defense lawyer Michael Clark says he didn't get the court summons because he was splitting time between two homes.
