A woman was arrested on a charge of drunk driving after allegedly
driving drunk with a dead body that crashed into the windshield of her
car during a hit and run, according to police in California.
Oceanside police said that they have arrested 29-year-old Esteysi
Sanchez Izazaga, after being accused of hitting and killing a man with
her car.
Izazaga was charged with drunk driving, vehicular manslaughter and
hit-and-run. She was booked into the Vista County jail, and her bail was
set at $130,000.
According to the police investigation, the incident unfolded around 6:30
a.m. on Monday. Witnesses reported seeing a man walking on the sidewalk
when he was hit by the suspectโs car.
Izazaga allegedly drove her car onto the sidewalk and hit the man at
random. Because of her speed, the victim flew into the windshield and
landed in the front passenger seat.
One of the man’s legs separated from his body and flew through the back window, landing on the trunk of the car.
Izazaga continued driving about a mile. She then parked her car in a
dead end street and walked away. Witnesses called police, who found
Izazaga a few blocks away.
