A Pleasanton woman who allegedly killed a 3-year-old boy and injured his mother and two siblings when she struck their car while driving under the influence was charged Friday in connection with the crash, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Yarenit Malihan, 40, was charged with gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and felony driving under the influence.
Malihan allegedly slammed her Toyota Sequoia into the back of a disabled Toyota Camry parked on the right shoulder of Interstate 680 in San Ramon in the early evening of Sept. 10.
In the Camry was 3-year-old Elijah Dunn, his mother, his 11-year-old brother and his 1-year-old sister. Elijah was airlifted to UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland, where he was later pronounced dead.
The rest of his family was also transported to a hospital, his siblings for minor injuries, but his mother for injuries that were described as major.
Malihan was booked into the Martinez Detention Facility on suspicion of driving under the influence and gross vehicular manslaughter, but was released on bail.
She was not formally charged until Friday, one week after Pleasanton police arrested her on suspicion of public intoxication, according to the Pleasanton police.
