Tulare County, CA (December 28, 2020) – On Friday, Orlando Rosalez and his passenger were injured in a DUI crash on Highway 198.

California Highway Patrol said Rosalez was driving a 2001 Lexus under the influence of alcohol driving west on Highway 198.
 
He approached a T-intersection near Lemon Hill Recreation Area at a fast speed and crashed with a 2020 Ford.
 
Authorities said the Ford driver exited the recreation area and was turning left onto the highway when Rosalez veered across the double yellow line.
 
The Ford driver did not get injured from the crash.
 
However, Rosalez was pinned in the driver’s seat and was extricated by Tulare County Fire.
