A 51-year-old nurse has been charged with vehicular manslaughter for a Feb. 2 crash that killed a homeless man.

Anne Munoz, of Delray Beach, was arrested Thursday and is in the county jail in lieu of a $25,000 bond. Her blood-alcohol level was .072, within the legal limit to drive, but she was also under the influence of oxycodone and other drugs when the crash occurred, police said.

“He was just a homeless guy,” she told police after the February crash.

Munoz has a long history of traffic infractions, including speeding and careless driving in recent years, state records show. Her license was revoked for 90 days for a driving under the influence charge in 1979.

Munoz struck and killed Brian Wobschall, 47, with her 2008 Mercedes-Benz in the 4100 block of West Atlantic Avenue, police said.

Wobschall either fell or lay down on the westbound side of the road and Munoz, the owner of a home health-care business, hit him around 9:40 p.m., police said.

Other cars had missed Wobschall, police said.
