WALNUT CREEK, Calif. — The driver who fatally struck a Southern California woman and injured another woman Saturday as they were walking on a sidewalk has faced previous driving-related arrests.
Hossein Tabrizi, 52, has been arrested for at least one DUI and has had his license suspended twice.
Police are currently investigating whether he was driving under the influence the night he jumped a curb and slammed into the two women on the sidewalk on Main Street and Parkside Drive, but police said it would take some time.
Tabrizi is currently in a Martinez jail and was charged with the death of Sherry Hicks, a 52-year-old teacher from Santa Barbara.
“Based on witness statements, the vehicle was driving on a sidewalk before collision meets the elements of vehicular manslaughter,” said Walnut Creek police Lt. Lanny Edwards

NORRISTOWN – A former Pennsylvania State Police trooper will be able to drive, albeit with restrictions, while he awaits trial for allegedly driving drunk while off-duty and slamming into another car, killing a woman, on the Pennsylvania Turnpike in Upper Dublin.
Under a bail agreement reached Monday between prosecutors and onetime Trooper Barry M. Searfoss Jr., 41, of Gavin Drive, Valley Township, Chester County, Searfoss’ driver’s license will be restored to allow him to drive, but only between 9 a.m. and sunset, according to the court order signed by Senior Judge William T. Nicholas.
Furthermore, if Searfoss obtains employment, he must submit his work schedule to the bail authority and can drive for purposes of work, even if it is beyond a 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. timeframe, and he would have an additional hour before and after work to commute to and from home, according to the agreement.
The purpose of bail is to ensure a defendant’s compliance with the judicial system and to ensure the defendant’s appearance at court hearings

August 26, 2012–Charleston, West Virginia–According to the Usphur County Sheriff’s Office, a man was arrested following a Sunday afternoon car accident in Buckhannon that left two people injured.
The suspect was arrested for a third DUI offense within ten years after he pulled out in front of another vehicle. Two men who were passengers in the suspect’s car were injured, although police have not yet released their names or the extent of their injuries. Police said that the suspect has incurred five or six total DUIs since his driver’s license was issued.
My sincere wishes for a speedy recovery go out to the victims in this accident.
DUI Facts and Statistics
According to both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Mothers Against Drunk Drivers, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs accounts for at least one-third of all car accidents. Between the hours of 9:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m., that number may increase to three-fourths of all collisions. DUIs are also responsible for at least one-third of all hit-and-run accidents involving pedestrians or bicyclists, and may be responsible for any number of single-car accidents. Drunk driving is still a leading cause of death for people under the age of 25
