A 19-year-old Antioch male was killed Saturday night after the driver of a vehicle traveling eastbound on James Donlon Boulevard lost control near Nightingale Drive and crashed into a retaining wall, causing the vehicle to flip on its side, according to police.

Two 16-year-old females and the 18-year-old driver were transported to the hospital for injuries – one of the females was in critical condition. The other 18-year-old male passenger was treated at the scene for minor injuries.

Police, who have not released the names of the deceased male or those who were injured, are investigating the cause of the accident.

Mayor Jim Davis said via e-mail that his wife Susan, a police volunteer who was on the scene until 7 a.m. this morning, “called in a drunk driver who almost mowed her down while directing traffic. Resulting in his arrest.”
