MADISON (WKOW) -- Prosecutors filed a new charge against the man accused of causing a deadly crash in downtown Madison.

Court records show Gavin Veium now faces a new homicide charge -- this one includes the modifier of use of a controlled substance. Veium also faces charges of homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle and second degree reckless homicide.

McCullough died after the crash.

During his arraignment hearing on Wednesday, not guilty pleas were entered on Veium's behalf.
