In a tragic incident early Saturday morning, a woman lost her life following a collision involving an alleged drunk driver in Willowbrook. According to the California Highway Patrol, the crash occurred around 12:45 a.m. near the intersection of Central Avenue and El Segundo Boulevard.
Investigators report that Kimberly Dunne, a 32-year-old Los Angeles resident, was driving a 2012 Toyota southbound on Central Avenue at the time of the incident. Simultaneously, 22-year-old Brenda Mejia was a passenger in a 2012 Infiniti traveling northbound on the same road.
"The Infiniti attempted a left turn onto westbound El Segundo Boulevard, while the Toyota continued southbound through the intersection, resulting in a broadside collision," stated the CHP.
Tragically, Mejia was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics. Another passenger, identified as 20-year-old Sharlyn Vaca, sustained moderate injuries and was hospitalized.
Dunne, who allegedly caused the crash, was arrested at the scene and later hospitalized for her own injuries, described as moderate. Two additional juvenile passengers in Dunne's vehicle were also hospitalized with moderate and major injuries. Authorities suspect that alcohol and/or drugs played a role in the collision, according to the CHP statement.
Initially responding to the scene, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department investigators handed over the case to the CHP for further investigation. During the initial stages, sheriff's deputies assisted with crowd control. Meanwhile, the driver of the Infiniti fled the scene, leaving only a vague description as a male. Anyone with information is urged to contact investigators at (424) 551-4000.
This heartbreaking incident underscores the dangers of impaired driving and serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible behavior behind the wheel.
