Please don’t drink and drive.
This was a horrific accident and terrible way for someone to die.
A suspected drunk driver killed a pedestrian in a bloody hit-and-run Monday, driving for a mile with the victim’s body lodged in the front seat, said Oceanside police. She allegedly parked in a cul-de-sac and walked away, before being arrested.
The collision happened at approximately 6:20 a.m. on the 4000 block of Mission Avenue when witnesses reported seeing a man walking on the sidewalk hit by a car, police said.
Police said Esteysi Sanchez Izazaga, 29, who goes by Stacy Sanchez, drove her car onto the sidewalk and hit the man at random.
Because of how fast the vehicle was allegedly traveling, the victim flew into the windshield, head down, coming to a rest on the front passenger seat.
The man’s leg detached from his body and flew through the back window, landing on the trunk of the car, police said.
Izazaga continued driving for about a mile, police said, eventually parking her car in a neighborhood cul-de-sac and walking away.
Thoughts and prayers go out to the victim’s family and friends.
