A drunken pedestrian (a 19-year-old male) lying on the street was hit by a car at night and dragged to a distance of about 600 meters. He was taken to a hospital soon but died there from brain injuries. His head and back were strongly and widely grazed against the road surface. Major parts of the left side of his skull and the brain were scraped off. The assailant thought that he had to escape from the place, because he was on probation because of established crime of drunken driving and drug abuse. As he continued to drive even after noticing that his car was dragging the victim, realizing that he might die as a consequence, a case of homicide due to conscious negligence was established.
