Authorities said the suspect vehicle, driven by Raul Villalobos, was driving fast and nearly struck several other vehicles. They said Villalobos was also injured and had to be extracted from the car he was driving, and is in a hospital. He is facing charges of DUI, serious injury by vehicle, reckless driving, driving while unlicensed and no insurance.
Some of the drivers who had to swerve to avoid colliding with the wrong-way driver, who called 911 to report him, also witnessed the collision, and they and other drivers stopped to try to help.
“Please hurry! Someone’s trapped and the truck’s on fire!” said one 911 caller.
