Three people were killed and a child injured when a drunken driver slammed into the sleeping family’s trailer in California, authorities say.
Suspect Ismael Huazo-Jardinez, 33, allegedly lost control of his truck and crashed into the family’s vehicle Saturday night in Knights Landing, which is about 25 miles northwest from Sacramento, KOVR-TV reported.
Huazo-Jardinez was driving his Chevrolet Avalanche “at a high rate of speed” when he plowed into the parked trailer, authorities said.
Officials said the dead victims included a 38-year-old man, a 34-year-old woman and a 10-year-old boy.
Emergency responders airlifted an 11-year-old girl to UC Davis Medical Center, where she’s fighting for her life, according to KOVR.
“If you add alcohol and speed, it’s a recipe for disaster,” California Highway Patrol spokesman David Hernandez told KCRA-TV.
Huazo-Jardinez was treated at a local hospital for his injuries before he was booked at the Sutter County Jail.
Charges were filed against him for vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and driving under the influence.
