Fatal crashes in Washington, California; drivers arrested

A pickup truck driven by 29-year-old Anthony Carsella rear-ended a Honda Accord on Highway 44 in Redding late Friday, sending the car into a roadside building. The Honda’s passenger, a 36-year-old woman, later died; the driver was not injured. Authorities said alcohol contributed to the crash and arrested Carsella on suspicion of second-degree murder and DUI-related offenses, including driving with a license suspended for a prior DUI. He is being held on $750,000 bail, and court records show he was previously arrested on suspicion of DUI.
