San Diego, CA (May 25, 2022) – On Wednesday, at about 3:22 a.m., the authorities arrested Jordan Bourassa, 23, in a DUI crash on Twin Peaks Road killing his male passenger.
According to the authorities, Bourassa and his passenger were eastbound when their vehicle slammed into a signal light pole and flipped on its hood at the intersection with Community Road.
The rescuers immediately responded and were able to free Bourassa. However, the passenger remained trapped while waiting for help from the Poway Fire Department.
Moreover, the paramedics rushed both of them to Palomar Hospital in Escondido where the officers declared the male passenger dead.
The hospital later released Bourassa into the officers’ custody. Reports say the authorities arrested him on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol, bodily injury, and vehicular manslaughter. He was booked into the San Diego Central Jail.

A wrongful death suit allows families to hold parties liable for the irrevocable damages they have caused. It is a civil action brought forth by relatives of a deceased victim whose death was caused by another person’s negligence.
One of its benefits is that it alleviates most or all of the financial burden the death of a relative has generated.
