A tragic scene unfolded in Chula Vista when a 3-year-old girl was left fighting for her life following a late-night two-car crash. The Chula Vista Police Department reported that the collision occurred on May 7 at the East Palomar Street and Brandywine Avenue intersection. First responders dispatched to the scene found the young victim unresponsive, and she was subsequently rushed to a trauma center, where she remains in critical condition.

The accident, which took place shortly before midnight, also resulted in injuries to three other women, ages 42, 60, and 69, all transported to the hospital complaining of pain. The driver of the vehicle carrying the small child, identified by the police as 26-year-old Ayneisha Bryant Frazier, was arrested on DUI-related charges and child endangerment at the scene.

Further details provided by the Chula Vista Police Department remain scant as the Traffic Bureau pursues its investigation into the cause of the crash. As is standard in such cases, the victims' names have been withheld to protect their privacy. Officer James Bucaro of the Chula Vista Police urged any witnesses or individuals with information about the collision to come forward.

According to the authorities, the intersection where the incident occurred was closed off for some hours as the Chula Vista Police Traffic Bureau conducted their on-site investigations. The arrest of Frazier adds her to the ever-growing list of DUI statistics in the state. The Chula Vista community has been shaken by the event, with many taking to social media to express concern and wish for the recovery of the child and the other injured victims.

The Chula Vista Police Department will handle further inquiries but made it clear that determining the cause of such collisions can be complex and time-consuming. Anyone with potentially pertinent information to the investigation is strongly encouraged to assist law enforcement by contacting the Traffic Bureau.
