Woman accused of DUI, hitting 3 cyclists

SEAL BEACH – A 46-year-old woman was arrested Saturday morning on suspicion of hitting three bicyclists and driving away from the scene.

The driver, Juli Ann Brown, of Anchorage, Alaska, was arrested on suspicion of hit-and-run, as well as suspicion of driving under the influence and possession of narcotics.

Seal Beach police Sgt. John Scott said police received a call at 8:06 a.m. Saturday of a woman in an SUV who had struck three cyclists on Pacific Coast Highway, just west of Anderson Street.

Scott said the Seal Beach police sent a radio broadcast to the Huntington Beach police department about the vehicle. A short time later, Brown was stopped while heading east on Pacific Coast Highway near the intersection of 17th Street in Huntington Beach. She was booked and later taken to the Orange County Jail.

Any witnesses are asked to call Seal Beach police at 562-799-4115 or Officer Joe Garcia at 562-799-4100, ext. 1649.

Cause of the Seal Beach Accident

If news accounts  are accurate, the driver, Juli Ann Brown is likely  responsible for causing this accident. However, the accident is still under investigation by the Seal Beach Police Department and an official determination of the cause of the Orange  County crash has not been made.
