Thomas Petry & Devin Perkins; Both Drivers Arrested In Wrong-way Crash That Killed 3 Young People, Including Tiktok Star Ali Dulin

The investigation into a wrong-way crash that claimed the lives of three young people near DeLand in December and injured a fourth has resulted in two arrests.

Thomas Petry was arrested Thursday night and Devin Perkins was arrested Friday morning.

Petry was identified as the wrong-way driver, according to Florida Highway Patrol. He is charged with vehicular homicide and leaving the scene of a deadly crash, among other charges.

Perkins, the alleged driver of the car carrying his three friends who were killed, was also charged. He’s charged with vehicular homicide and reckless driving. Troopers say Perkins was driving 100 mph while under the influence before colliding with Petry.

The crash happened early in the morning on State Road 44 near the DeLand fairgrounds and I-4. Four friends in their 20s – Devin Perkins, Kyle Moser, Ava Fellerman, and TikTok star Ali Dulin – were coming home from Orlando when the driver of a pickup, traveling west in the eastbound lane, slammed head-on into them.

Moser, Dulin and Fellerman were killed in the crash. Perkins was injured but survived. The wrong-way driver, Petry, allegedly fled.
