The man charged with killing a mother and daughter leaving a concert in downtown St. Louis is out on bond.

22-year-old Monte Henderson was released Friday.

Henderson's bond was $200,000, but a judge allowed him to post 10% of that cash only.

Just 24 hours prior, Henderson was charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter and two counts of armed criminal action.

Henderson's attorney shared this statement following the charges, "This is a very tragic accident, Monte is very upstanding young man; involved in academics and sports."

Officers said Henderson was running red lights when he sideswiped the front end of another vehicle at North 18th and Olive streets. His Jeep rotated clockwise and hit Bracero and Cordova, who were walking on the crosswalk. The Jeep continued to move until it T-boned another vehicle.

According to court documents, data retrieved from the Jeep indicated that the car was traveling at speeds in excess of 70 mph prior to violating the red traffic signal.
