DUI Arrest Made After Three-Vehicle Crash on Antelope Road in Citrus Heights

Three-Vehicle Crash Causes Temporary Road Closure

Emergency responders were dispatched after a crash involving multiple vehicles occurred on Antelope Road between Garden Gate Drive and Rollingwood Boulevard.

When officers arrived, they found three vehicles involved, including one vehicle that had overturned. Police reported that all occupants had safely exited their vehicles before first responders arrived.

The roadway was temporarily closed in both directions while crews investigated the crash and cleared the scene. The road has since reopened.

No Serious Injuries Reported

Authorities reported that no serious injuries resulted from the collision. Following the investigation, one driver was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence. Police believe speed and a red-light violation were contributing factors in the crash.

Investigation Ongoing

The Citrus Heights Police Department continues to investigate the collision. Additional details may be released as the investigation progresses.

The Dangers of Impaired and Reckless Driving

Driving under the influence, speeding, and disregarding traffic signals significantly increase the risk of serious collisions. Motorists can help protect themselves and others by obeying traffic laws, driving at safe speeds, and never operating a vehicle while impaired.

Why Understanding Your Legal Rights Matters

When a collision is caused by a reckless or impaired driver, injured victims often have clear legal avenues to pursue compensation for their hardships. A comprehensive claim can seek recovery for:

• Medical expenses and ongoing healthcare costs
• Lost wages and missed income from time away from work
• Physical pain, emotional suffering, and other related losses

Working with an experienced personal injury attorney ensures the crash is thoroughly investigated, vital evidence is promptly preserved, and your rights are aggressively safeguarded from day one.
