Injuries Reported in Fontana Auto Accident on Etiwanda Avenue and Santa Ana Avenue
FONTANA, CA (May 4, 2022) – Saturday night, two children suffered injuries in a two-vehicle crash on Etiwanda Avenue and Santa Ana Avenue.
The incident happened at around 7:00 p.m. on Etiwanda Avenue and Santa Ana Avenue.
According to witnesses, a gray Toyota Camry headed south on Etiwanda Avenue. Then, it veered into the northbound oncoming lanes of traffic and hit a northbound vehicle. The northbound vehicle had stopped at the red light at Santa Ana Avenue when the crash occurred.
Then, the Toyota driver went out of the vehicle and started throwing empty beer cans onto the side of the road prior to police arriving.
When officers came, they determined that two children, ages 1 and 3, occupied the rear seat area of the Camry. Officers confirmed that both children were in car seats. However, the seats weren’t properly attached.
As a result, responders took both children to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Meanwhile, the passengers in the other vehicle declined further medical attention.
Moreover, the authorities confirmed that the Toyota Camry driver traveled while under the influence of alcohol. Thus, they arrested the driver on charges of DUI and child endangerment.
Furthermore, they urged anyone with information about the crash to call the Fontana P.D. Traffic Division at (909) 350-7740.
Driving can be very dangerous and almost anything can happen if you are not prepared. Thus, it is important to slow down if you see traffic stalling ahead to avoid hitting other vehicles.
