Woman leaves injured companion in road after accident

Two women were injured Monday night after being struck by a suspected drunken driver, police reported.

The male driver was traveling west on Westminster Avenue when he struck the two victims crossing Harbor Boulevard just after 10 p.m. Monday, Garden Grove Police Officer Jay Mooney said.

The two women were crossing the street to a McDonald’s parking lot, where someone was waiting to pick them up.

One of the victims left her injured companion at the scene of the accident in the vehicle waiting in the parking lot, Mooney said.

The victim left at the scene was taken to the UC Irvine Medical Center in Orange, where she is being treated for multiple broken bones, Mooney said.

The driver, who remained at the scene, was taken into custody for driving under the influence.
