LONG BEACH, CA (April 13, 2020) — A woman died Saturday afternoon following a DUI accident on Canal Avenue near West Esther Street.
 
According to police, the collision happened around 4:40 p.m. just south of West Esther Street.
 
In the investigation, officers learned that a northbound 2003 Nissan Altima slammed into a parked 1995 Toyota Tercel. The impact forced the Toyota into the trailer of a parked semi-truck, killing the 56-year-old woman sitting inside the Toyota.
 
According to police, the Nissan driver ran a short distance after the crash, but officers arrested him. A passenger inside the Nissan stayed, however, and cooperated with police.
