An arrest warrant has been issued for a woman who drove her Mercedes into the path of oncoming traffic, injuring herself and her child.
After nearly four months, officials released toxicology screen results and the identity of the driver.
According to Officer Jason Browning of the Folsom Police Department, Susan Moskalets had a blood alcohol level of .07, under the legal limit for the state of .08.
She also tested positive for the strong pain killer morphine and Naproxen, an anti-inflammatory drug often used for pain.
Browning said the case was forwarded to the Sacramento County District Attorney’s office to determine whether charges would be filed against Moskalets.
“An active warrant has been issued for her arrest,” said Officer Shelly Orio, spokeswoman for the Sacramento County District Attorney’s office Thursday. “The warrant (charges) DUI of alcohol and/or drugs with injury and endangering the health or life of a child.”
The charges are felonies.
On Jan. 27, officers responded to a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of East Bidwell Street and Bluestone Circle.
A 1983 Mercedes station wagon, with Moskalets behind the wheel and three of her children ages 6 to 8 in the vehicle, reportedly crossed into the path of an oncoming Dodge Durango. The sole occupant of the Durango was an unidentified female driver.
Witnesses stated the Mercedes had been southbound on East Bidwell, moving with no headlights, when it entered a left turn lane. The driver went into the intersection, reportedly disregarding the red light and heading into oncoming traffic.
Having the green light, the Durango was northbound when it entered the intersection, hitting the Mercedes broadside.
