A Moreno Valley woman died after her vehicle was struck by a wrong-way driver believed to be intoxicated early Sunday morning, Sept. 19, on Highway 259 in San Bernardino, the California Highway Patrol said.
The crash happened around 2:17 a.m. on northbound Highway 259 north of 27th Street, said Officer Ivan Sandoval, spokesman for the CHP. A Moreno Valley woman was driving a Subaru north when she was struck by the wrong-way driver, Sandoval said.
The woman, whose identity was not immediately available, was pronounced dead at the scene, Sandoval said.
The wrong-way driver was taken to a hospital in critical yet stable condition, Sandoval said. Due to the extent of his injuries, the wrong-way driver has not been able to speak to investigators, Sandoval said.
