A report released to the family of a man killed when his car was struck by a police cruiser says the off-duty officer was driving twice the speed limit in the December crash.

According to the report, released this week to the family of 20-year-old Brian Gray, the officer, Mario Chavez, was driving a police cruiser at 50 miles per hour in a 25-mph zone on Dec. 10. Gray pulled his vehicle into Belair Drive at 15 mph to make a left turn; Chavez tried to avoid Gray's car, but the two crashed. Gray was killed and Chavez was injured.

The report said that each party shared some of the blame in the crash, adding that the case would be closed "unfounded" awaiting a review by the county state's attorney's office.
