A Fairfax man is facing manslaughter and drunk driving charges after an 8-year-old boy was killed in an Alexandria crash.

Alexandria police said 22-year-old Victor Aldana was driving west on Duke Street near the Interstate 395 overpass when he veered off the road, hitting two pedestrians — a 31-year-old woman and an 8-year-old boy. The boy, Brian Hernandez-Chavez, was killed. The woman suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
