Dennis Man Charged Following Fatal Yarmouth Crash

The impact of the crash was so severe that it moved the boulder and also sent the vehicle airborne before it came to a stop on a pine tree, police said. 
A Dennis man has been charged with motor vehicle manslaughter after a speeding car slammed into a boulder, flew through the air, and ended up suspended in a tree in Yarmouth. James Rebello III, 33, was arrested and charged with manslaughter by motor vehicle, speeding, failure to stop, failure to stay within marked lanes, and negligent operation of a motor vehicle. The crash happened on Blue Rock Road in South Yarmouth just before 1:30 a.m. on Saturday. First responders found Steven Berrio, 28, of Harwich, on the ground after he was ejected during the accident. Rebello was still in the vehicle. Firefighters attempted to revive Berrio, who was transported to Cape Cod Hospital where he was pronounced deceased. Alcoholic beverages were found inside the car, and police determined that Robello was drunk.
