Winchester Man Killed in Drunken Driver Collision

A Winchester resident was killed in a crash involving two drunken drivers who collided and then plowed into a construction crew on the San Diego (405) Freeway in the South Bay Sunday.

Ricardo Zamora, 58, of Winchester, was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash, reported at 3:35 a.m., officials said.

Another worker was killed as well. 

A third worker was taken to Kaiser Permanente South Bay Medical
Center with minor to moderate injuries, according to California Highway Patrol Officer Dion Conley.

The two workers were employed by a contracting firm under Caltrans
supervision, officials said.

CHP officers said a blue Ford Explorer driven by Yocio Jonathan Gomez, 33, of Norwalk, smashed into the rear of a black Lexus RX-350 SUV driven by Stephan Christopher Caserta, 43, of Playa Vista, Conley said.

As it turns out, one of the motorists (Caserta) was slowing down as he
saw the construction site. He was rear-ended by the other motorist, which caused them both to drive into the construction zone," CHP Officer Ed Jacobs said.
