The driver, Alexis Quintero, 24, had been bar-hopping in the Gaslamp Quarter with friend Katherine Garcia, 26, when they crashed on their way home to the Los Angeles area.
A woman who drove drunk and caused a rollover crash in downtown San Diego that killed her friend was sentenced Wednesday to four years in state prison. Alexis Quintero, 24, pleaded guilty to gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and other charges for the Feb. 6 crash, which occurred around 3 a.m. on First Avenue near B Street. Katherine Garcia, 26, a passenger in the vehicle, was ejected from the car and died at the scene. Both women were from the Los Angeles area.
According to Deputy District Attorney Deven Klee, the women were drinking at bars in the Gaslamp Quarter, and Quintero's intention was to drive them back to Los Angeles County that night. Shortly after the crash, Quintero had a 0.18 percent blood-alcohol-content, according to the prosecutor, which is more than twice the legal driving limit in California.
