Atwater, CA (June 1, 2025) – A suspected DUI crash at Southern Pacific Avenue and Commerce Avenue killed a 20-year-old woman and a 3-year-old child, the California Highway Patrol reports.
The collision occurred around 10:35 p.m. Sunday when a speeding, impaired driver failed to stop at the intersection and struck another vehicle. Emergency responders pronounced both victims dead at the scene.
