–Denise Lyn Fox, 56, of Santa Margarita, was reportedly killed in a head-on car crash just east of Santa Margarita in San Luis Obispo County on Saturday. The collision occurred at about 6:15 p.m. Saturday near the area of Highway 58 and W. Pozo Road.

Fox was reportedly driving a Toyota sedan eastbound about a half mile outside Santa Margarita when a car driven by 23-year-old San Luis Obispo resident Jessica Lea Allred, crossed the double yellow lines and crashed head on into Fox. Fox was pronounced dead at the scene.

Emergency personnel transported Allred, who was suffering from a broken leg and two broken ankles, to Sierra Vista Regional Medical Center. CHP officers then placed Allred under arrest for DUI at the hospital, reports say.

A GoFundMe account was set up to cover the costs of her final wishes.
