4. AUSTIN, Texas — A third person died Monday from injuries sustained in last week's tragedy in which a drunk driver plowed through a crowd outside a nightclub at the South By Southwest music festival.
A car hit the victim, Sandy Le, on Thursday outside The Mohawk nightclub, according to the Travis County Medical Examiner's Office.
Le was an Austin resident but was a native of Pass Christian, Miss., according to her family.
Jamie West, 27, of Austin; and Steven Craenmehr, 35, of Amsterdam, were killed. Twenty-two others were injured. Seven people remain hospitalized.
Rashad Owens, 21, of Killeen, Texas, has been charged with capital murder and aggravated assault with a motor vehicle. He's accused of driving drunk, fleeing from police and intentionally driving into a crowd of festival-goers.
Police say Craenmehr was on a bicycle, and West was on a moped with her husband. West's husband remains in the hospital.
SXSW ended its 28th year early Sunday..
