BLYTHEVILLE, Ark. — On Monday, November 18, 2024, Robert Charles Sena, 40, of Bellevue, Nebraska, was arrested in connection to a fatality wreck that occurred in Mississippi County last year and resulted in the deaths of a woman and an 8-year-old passenger.

On October 27, 2023, at about 6:15 a.m., Arkansas State Police responded to a two-vehicle crash on Highway 18, west of Blytheville. Investigators found that Sena, who then lived in Lake City, Ark., was driving a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado when he crossed the center line and collided head-on with a 2019 Ford Edge driven by Ramira Rogers, 34, of Blytheville.

Rogers and a minor in her vehicle were killed in the wreck. Another minor in the vehicle was injured. A witness reported that Sena was driving aggressively and erratically before the accident.

A blood sample was collected from Sena and submitted to the Arkansas State Crime Lab for toxicology analysis. On January 25, 2024, the results from the toxicology report revealed that Sena tested positive for methamphetamine at the time of the crash. 

Sena was booked into the Mississippi County Detention Center on two counts of Negligent Homicide and for Driving Left of Center.
