Police say the wife of J. Gerald Smith had dinner ready for him at home, but he never made it.

Smith, 82, worked as an Uber driver. He was killed Wednesday afternoon in Delray Beach when police say a speeding Lamborghini slammed into his Buick Enclave on NE 1st Street.



Smith stopped at a stop sign when the high-end sports car crashed into the front of his car, police said.

Investigators with Delray Beach say the driver of the Lamborghini, identified as 60-year-old Roger Wittenberns of Delray Beach, was speeding down the street along with his girlfriend, who was at the wheel of a Porsche. The speed limit on the street is 35 miles per hour.

Police say Wittenberns, hospitalized at Delray Medical Center in serious condition, is cooperating. His girlfriend, 61-year-old Patty Ann McQuiggin is not. She refused to give police a statement when officers made contact with her at her home in Vista Del Mar Wednesday evening. Police found her Porsche in the parking lot of a restaurant near the scene of the crash.

Wittenberns told police he and McQuiggin spent the afternoon eating and drinking in downtown Delray Beach. They left in separate cars.



Investigators say speed and alcohol are factors in the crash. Both Wittenberns and McQuiggin have prior DUI arrests, according to state records obtained by CBS12 reporter Greg Angel.

Police are looking for more witnesses to call Crime Stoppers at 800-458-TIPS. You will remain anonymous.
