Passenger Dies in Suspected DUI Crash on the Bitwise 41 Building [Fresno, CA]

Fresno, CA (April 24, 2023) – At about 11:40 p.m. on Saturday, a male passenger sustained fatal injuries following a suspected DUI crash on the Bitwise 41 building.

Fresno Police Lt. Charlie Chamalbide said a witness told the police that the vehicle was traveling at a high rate of speed on Ventura Street when the driver lost control at the intersection with R Street and crashed at the wall of the Bitwise 41 building.

The 20-year-old passenger was declared dead at the crash scene while the 25-year-old driver was transported to Community Regional Medical Center in critical condition. 

“There were some indicators that alcohol was a factor,” Chamalbide stated. “There were some beer cans inside the car, but we don’t know if the passenger was drinking or the driver was drinking.”

Officers are investigating.
