The Tragic Incident in Mesa, Arizona
Last week, in the quiet city of Mesa, Arizona, a devastating collision took place that shook the community to its core. The incident occurred on the early hours of April 18th, at around 1 a.m. on University Drive near Crismon Road, leaving a woman dead and a man critically injured.
The Collison
According to the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, the crash involved a Ford Mustang and a Nissan Frontier. The impact of the collision was so severe that the woman driving the Nissan, identified as 33-year-old Christina Diamond, was ejected from the pickup and tragically pronounced dead at the scene.
The Reckless Driving
Deputies revealed that the driver of the Mustang, 66-year-old David Lane, was intoxicated and driving at a staggering speed of 105 miles per hour when he collided with Diamond’s truck. The sheer force of the impact caused the Nissan to roll over and crash into a nearby fence, leading to the untimely death of Christina Diamond.
The Aftermath
Following the collision, the Mustang continued its destructive path until it hit a utility pole and burst into flames about a quarter-mile away from the crash site. David Lane, who sustained non-life-threatening injuries, was admitted to the hospital, where tests revealed that he had a blood alcohol content of .23, nearly three times the legal limit.
Legal Consequences
Once released from the hospital, David Lane is expected to be booked into the Maricopa County jail to face the consequences of his reckless actions that resulted in the tragic loss of Christina Diamond’s life. The community of Mesa mourns the loss of a vibrant soul and hopes for justice to be served in this heartbreaking case.
