Two Men Flee DUI Crash on Camino El Estero in Monterey
MONTEREY, CA (June 11, 2021) – Authorities arrested 18-year-old Marcelo Muñoz Sixto after a DUI accident on Del Monte Avenue on Sunday.

Authorities transported them to a local hospital where they received medical clearance and were booked. Officers arrested Sixto with DUI causing bodily injury and other related charges.
Investigators say Sixto was driving his vehicle at three times the blood alcohol limit allowed in California. Meanwhile, Fidencio Lopez-Daniel was also arrested for public intoxication.

Operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol is one of the most dangerous things you can do as a driver. If you find yourself unable to safely drive, you can always request an Uber, Lyft, or taxi service instead.
