Another one of his passengers was seriously injured, with his neck and collarbone broken, court documents said. Two more people had minor injuries after they were driving and were hit by the Highlander plummeting from above.

The crash shut down the highway for hours and caused major disruptions to traffic in the area.

The documents showed Mohamud was allegedly driving his mother鈥檚 SUV without a license at the time of the crash off the overpass. Police said the car was supposed to have a lock over the ignition but did not.

Man suspected in deadly Tukwila crash has more than 35 traffic infractions

Mohamud has incurred more than 35 traffic infractions over the past 12 years, according to the documents. They include speeding, texting while driving, driving without insurance, driving without a license, tailgating, and HOV lane violations.

鈥淭his is an individual with previous criminal convictions, and prosecutors are highly concerned about community safety,鈥 said Douglas Wagoner, a spokesperson with the King County Prosecuting Attorney鈥檚 Office. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 why they asked for bail in the amount of $150,000 at his first court appearance.鈥

The judge previously set his bail at $100,000 instead. Mohamud has since posted that bail and been released from jail, but he has been on house arrest and is, pending the trial, effectively banned from driving.

Wagoner said his office is busy at work preparing evidence to present to a jury.

His trial is scheduled for May 5.
