Motorcyclist killed, 2 arrested for DUI in chaotic Orange County trailer crash
Two people were arrested for driving under the influence of drugs after a messy RV crash left a motorcyclist dead in Orange County early Saturday morning, and officials are investigating whether the motorcyclist was also driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. It happened right around midnight on May 31, according to the Fullerton Police Department, near the intersection of North Euclid Street and Bastanchury Road. Fullerton officers arrived on the scene and found a significantly damaged 1993 Harley Davidson and a seriously injured adult male rider lying on the ground. Nearby, in the middle of a roadway west of the intersection, police said officers found a 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe connected to a 1996 Prowler recreational trailer with 'visible collision damage.' Huntington Beach being listed as sanctuary city was 'serious mistake,' mayor says According to the department's preliminary investigation, a woman was driving the Chevy and RV eastbound on West Bastanchury Road when the vehicle 'experienced a mechanical issue' and stopped in the center median. A man who was also in the Chevy traded spots with the driver, attempting to reverse the vehicle, but ended up causing the Chevy and the RV to jack-knife and block off both westbound lanes. It was when the RV was splayed across the westbound lanes that the motorcyclist, traveling from North Euclid Street, crashed into the trailer. Paramedics later arrived at the crash and pronounced the motorcyclist dead at the scene. His identity was not immediately released. 'Both the adult female driver and the adult male who attempted to move the vehicle were arrested at the scene on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs,' the police department stated. 'It remains unclear whether drugs or alcohol were contributing factors in relation to the rider's operation of the motorcycle.'
