TULARE COUNTY, CA : 2 killed, 2 hospitalized in suspected DUI crash near Reedley on Sunday, 3rd December 2023

A Dinuba principal has bonded out of jail after being arrested for his role in a suspected DUI crash near Reedley.

The CHP says they arrested 43-year-old Dinuba resident Blake Benham Sunday night following a crash on Road 56 near Avenue 430.

55-year-old Gloria Barajas and her 35-year-old Brenda Quinonez were heading home from Christmas shopping at the Tulare Outlets with Gloria's husband and younger daughter just after 6 Sunday night.

As they drove north in their Nissan Rogue, the California Highway Patrol says a Ford pickup heading south veered into their lane, colliding head-on with the family's SUV.

The crash killed Barajas and Quinonez and sent their other two family members to Community Regional Medical Center.
