TEWKSBURY, Mass. -- A judge finds an Andover attorney Ki Yong O not guilty of motor vehicle homicide in an accident that happened last year in Tewksbury.

The 36-year-old struck and killed Anthony Raucci while on the prescription sleep medication Ambien.

The judge in the case said that since O did not know the side effects of the drug, he could not be found guilty.

The accident happened while Raucci was changing a tire in the breakdown lane on I-93.

Raucci's wife and 7-year-old son were in the car at the time and watched the whole scene unfold.

O was also found not guilty on charges of leaving the scene of an accident with property damage.
