DUI Offender Cause Lethal Accident in San Diego

In San Diego, a 57-year-old man that has been accused of driving while intoxicated and causing a fatal collision last Friday night in Carmel Mountain is scheduled to be arraigned this week.  Anthony Guarino has been charged with driving under the influence, DUI causing bodily injury and gross vehicular manslaughter.

In 2006, the Department of Motor Vehicle records show that Guarino was cited in April for driving over 100 mph and was convicted at that time.  During the accident that took place on Friday evening, 65-year-old Marc William Durham of Rancho Bernardo was killed after he was hit from behind.  The impact caused a chain reaction and led to 4 other cars being involved in the collision.

It is reported that Guarino and the drivers of the three other vehicles were taken to the hospital to be treated for minor injuries.  Durham died at the scene of the crash and had just retired.
