Story out of Oceanside, California:
A California woman on an all-night drinking bender slammed her car into a homeless man — then drove for nearly a mile with his battered corpse lodged in her windshield, police said.
Esteysi Sanchez, 29, also known as Stacy Sanchez, had been out boozing at several bars in Oceanside, Calif., until the early hours Monday when she got into her Pontiac sedan and started driving home, according to news reports.
When Sanchez reached the 4000 block of Mission Avenue, she allegedly accelerated and her car barreled into the victim, a neighborhood hobo who was on his way to eat breakfast at Brother Benno’s Foundation Inc.
The impact tore off one of the man’s legs, which catapulted through a back window, landing on the trunk of the vehicle, the Washington Post reported. The rest of the man’s carcass flipped onto the windshield, shattering the glass and leaving him “impaled into the vehicle” with the top of his head lying on the passenger seat, the Washington Post said.
Sanchez kept driving for another three-quarters of a mile with the corpse stuck in her windshield, police said, adding that “it appears that alcohol may have been a factor.”
She even drove up onto the sidewalk and crashed through some landscaping before she stopped in a cul-de-sac, jumped out and alerted someone in a nearby home, KGTV News reported.
Sanchez then allegedly went home and told her husband, who called the Oceanside Police Department. Investigators arrested Sanchez after she confessed to driving while intoxicated, the Washington Post said. Sanchez was charged with felony DUI and vehicular manslaughter. Cont.
