3 Injured, Baby Unharmed After Phoenix DUI Driver Hits Palm Tree

PHOENIX, AZ — Alondra Cervantes Natividad, 24, was booked on DUI charges Sunday after crashing into a palm tree in Phoenix around 1:20 a.m. The crash near 35th Avenue and Indian School Road seriously injured both a man and a teen male who were in the vehicle, but a baby remained unharmed.

Phoenix police reported that Natividad was driving along the Indian School access road westbound onto north 35th Avenue when her speeding 2015 Nissan Altima went out of control and left the road. The car then crashed into a palm tree.

Once the police arrived at the accident, witnesses had already helped Natividad and her three passengers get out of the car. A 15-year-old male and a 23-year-old man who were seriously injured in the crash were taken to the hospital, while an 18-month-old boy was not injured.

Natividad, who sustained minor injuries, showed signs of DUI and was booked into jail on charges of aggravated DUI and aggravated assault.

The Phoenix Police Department continues to investigate.
