October 26, 2009

Anaheim – A suspected drunk driver has caused Monday’s collision which killed two women from San Bernardino and injured their two nieces inside the vehicle, the California Highway Patrol said.

The 44-year-old Sally Miguel was reportedly driving along Riverside (91) Freeway around 3 a.m. when the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado she was riding with three of her relatives was hit head-on by a Toyota Tundra.

Sally Miguel died at the scene while her front seat passenger, Patricia Miguel, 30, was taken to a hospital where she later died.

The two were with their nieces who were both hospitalized. Mary Miguel, 15, suffered moderate injuries while 11-year-old Sara sustained serious injuries.

Reports indicate that neither of the Miguels was wearing their seatbelts when the accident occurred.

The driver of the Tundra, 21-year-old Jessica Shekell, was suspected of DUI and suffered major injuries. She will likely face charges relating to the accident.
