Gregory Gulizia of Grass Valley Injured in DUI Crash on Rough and Ready Highway [Nevada County, CA]

Nevada County, CA (June 23, 2022) – On Tuesday, Gregory Gulizia, 46, of Grass Valley, and Jeanette Polino, 47, of Colfax, sustained injuries in a DUI crash on Rough and Ready Highway.

It was about 10:55 p.m. when the collision took place west of Ridge Road.

Officers say Polino in a 2008 Nissan Titan allowed the vehicle to leave the road. Afterward, the vehicle overturned and struck a tree.

“Polino had not been wearing a seat belt, and she suffered major injuries, including a neck fracture and a broken pelvis and femur,” Officer Jason Bice said.

Moreover, Gregory Gulizia, the passenger, was wearing a seat belt during the accident and sustained minor injuries.

The paramedics rushed both Gregory Gulizia and Jeanette Polino to a Roseville hospital

“Possibly felony DUI charges, due to the injury to the passenger,” Bice said in an email. “Depending on the severity of the injuries, the DA and/or the judge may reduce the charges to a misdemeanor. The driver is not currently in custody due to the severity of her own injuries.”

Bice added that they are still investigating and they consider alcohol as a factor in the collision west of Ridge Road.

Do not drink and drive.
