Four-car crash sends six to hospital
ROSEVILLE - Six people were taken to local hospitals after a four-vehicle collision caused by a suspected drunken driver, police said.
None of the injuries was considered life-threatening, and at least four of the injured were treated and released, said police spokeswoman Dee Dee Gunther.
The collision occurred at 6:22 p.m. Wednesday at Eureka Road and East Roseville Parkway when a Honda Prelude driven at high speed by a 23-year-old Carmichael man skidded across the intersection and struck three vehicles waiting at a stop light, Gunther said.
The driver of the Honda was taken to Sutter Roseville Medical Center, where he was in fair condition Thursday. He had not been arrested pending further investigation, so police did not release his name, Gunther said.
Traffic was diverted around the crash site for five hours Wednesday night, she said.
~~~ I just don't even know how to feel, i feel more bad for him then i do the people that actually got hit, i mean at least they're okay. I guess maybe it would be a natural reaction to feel sorry for the one you know even if they're the one's that fucked up. He'll be put away for quite some time im sure... Why are people so stupid!! Just had to learn the hard way... GRR I grew up with him, i always had the biggest crush on him when we were growing up, shit i still do.... ahhh, life lessons.... DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE!!!!
