1 Dead in Riverside Multi-Vehicle Accident on Collett Avenue and Stonewall Drive
RIVERSIDE, CA (January 6, 2025) – Saturday night, a woman died in a horrific DUI crash on Collett Avenue and Stonewall Drive.
The incident happened at 6:30 p.m. on Collett Avenue and Stonewall Drive, reported Riverside police Sgt. Tim Jensen.
A 75-year-old woman driving a white 2005 Jeep Liberty slowed on Collett Avenue to turn left onto Stonewall Drive when her vehicle was rear-ended by a gray 2014 Toyota Tundra driven by a 38-year-old Norco resident, according to Jensen.
The impact pushed the Jeep into oncoming traffic, where it collided head-on with a red 2014 Toyota C-HR driven by a 70-year-old Riverside man. The woman was rushed to the hospital but tragically succumbed to her injuries.
Authorities did not specify whether the 70-year-old driver was injured. The Norco driver was arrested on suspicion of DUI and booked into the Robert Presley Detention Center.
Anyone with information about the crash is asked to contact the Riverside Police Department at 951-353-7177 or email Detective Matthew Parrish at [email protected].
