Turlock Police Arrest Man In Alleged DUI Crash That Killed Three Generations Of Family

TURLOCK (CBS13) — A man suspected in the deadly DUI crash that killed three generations of a family has been arrested, according to the Turlock Police Department.

Luis Miguel Cruz, 28, was booked on charges of felony hit-and-run, felony DUI and three counts of vehicular manslaughter.
