The driver of the Honda, Angel Barranco, 35, of Adelanto, was accompanied by two passengers, later identified as Barranco's wife, Barbara Velasco, 23, and Velasco's mother, Monica Alarcon, 42, both also of Adelanto.

Investigators at the scene learned Velasco is approximately 7 months pregnant; she, Barranco and Alarcon were taken to a local area hospital with major injuries.

Barranco later succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at the hospital, officials said.

Delepaz Perez was taken to a local area hospital and was treated for minor injuries. He was then taken into custody on suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and driving under the influence causing great bodily injury.
