FALLBROOK, CA (January 1, 2019) – A man riding a motorcycle was killed following a DUI head-on crash early New Year’s Day in Fallbrook, authorities said.
 
The fatal crash happened around 3:47 a.m. on westbound Highway 76 at Ramona Drive.
 
According to police, a 29-year-old Christopher Williams was heading home from work on his motorcycle when he was struck head-on by a wrong-way Lexus car, driven by Private Adam Daniel Barooshian, 25, a Camp Pendleton Marine.
 
Several bystanders stopped and called 911 to report the accident. Responding paramedics pronounced Williams dead at the scene.
 
Barooshian was transported by ambulance to Palomar Medical Center with minor scratches. He was later arrested by police on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs.
