CHULA VISTA —
Several people were injured and taken to hospitals Wednesday evening after a suspected drunken driver in a speeding SUV collided with at least three other vehicles in Chula Vista’s Otay Ranch neighborhood, police said.
None of the injuries were expected to be life-threatening, according to Chula Vista police Lt. Gino Grippo, who said detectives were conducting an investigation into whether the SUV’s driver, who was among those injured in the crash, was under the influence of alcohol.
It happened around 5:20 p.m. on East Palomar Street at Santa Olivia Road, Grippo said. A black BMW SUV was speeding west on Palomar when it struck the other vehicles.
