A Staten Island man and his mother are facing a slew of charges, including aggravated manslaughter and hindering apprehension, after authorities say he caused a deadly crash in Plainsboro, New Jersey during a dangerous BMW street race.

Alvi Limani, 20, is charged with aggravated manslaughter, vehicular homicide, multiple counts of reckless assault by auto, endangering others, obstruction, tampering with records, leaving the scene of a fatal crash, and causing death or serious injury while driving with a revoked license. 

His mother, Vilma Vneshta, 42, is charged with hindering in the third degree. Both are being held at the Middlesex County Adult Correctional Center without bail.

The pair were arrested on July 17 near Miami, Florida, and detectives noted they purchased both a Florida ID, same-day passport, and plane tickets to Tirana, Albania.

Video footage showed Limani and Vneshta being cuffed on the tarmac.

According to jail records, both Limani and Vneshta are listed as non-citizens.

“Vneshta is Albanian and [is] believed to still have roots there,” detectives wrote in an affidavit.

The mother-son duo are currently being held at the Middlesex County Department of Corrections, according to jail records.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office did not immediately respond to inquiries from Fox News Digital.
