Woman charged with DWI following wreck on I-440
A 30-year-old woman was arrested early Thursday and charged with felony driving while impaired following a wreck that closed I-440 Eastbound for more than two hours, police said.
Posted — UpdatedAccording to investigators, Sasha Magana lost control of her SUV just before 2 a.m. near Six Forks Road during an argument that was going on in the vehicle. The SUV overturned twice, police said.
Authorities closed two lanes of I-440 until about 4 a.m. while investigators tried to determine a cause of the wreck.
Raleigh police didn't believe speed was a factor in the crash, but did believe Magana's intoxication was a contributing factor. Three people were transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries following the wreck.
Magana was also charged for driving with a revoked license, a safe movement violation and having an open container in the vehicle. No other information was released.
