Police say a suspected DUI driver was critically injured in a rollover crash this morning after she rammed into the back of another car in front of a hospital in Long Beach.
The crash happened shortly before 10:50 a.m. near the intersection of East 10th Street and Elm Avenue, outside St. Mary Medical Center, according to Long Beach police.
Investigators determined a woman driving a white car “intentionally” rammed into the back of a black sedan near the intersection, causing the white car to veer into a tree and end up on its side with the driver trapped inside, police said.
The driver of the white car was taken to a hospital, where she was admitted in critical but stable condition. She will be booked into jail on suspicion of DUI once medically cleared, police said.
