A 24-year-old pregnant woman was killed and her boyfriend is fighting for life after an allegedly drunk driver ran a red light and slammed into their car, police said.

Bianca Esquivel was riding in the passenger seat of her boyfriend’s white Toyota Camry traveling south on North Anaheim Boulevard just after midnight Sunday when the driver of a gray Lexus barreled into their car at the intersection with the eastbound 91 Freeway Frontage Road, CBS News reported.

The man driving the Lexus, 24-year-old Daniel Ramos, was arrested on suspicion of DUI and later booked on an additional vehicular homicide charge.

“Due to the victim being pregnant, additional charges may be considered pending the outcome of the investigation,” police said, adding that he “exhibited objective signs and symptoms of impairment” when taken into custody at the scene of the crash.

Esquivel was pronounced dead at the scene. Her boyfriend, who survived the crash, remains in critical condition.

Esquivel leaves behind a four-year-old son and heartbroken family and friends, loved ones said.

“Bianca was a devoted mother, a beloved sister and daughter, and a caring girlfriend,” read the note on a GoFundMe page set up to help with medical and funeral expenses.

“She was preparing to return to school to pursue a degree in accounting and had her entire life ahead of her.”
