Driver in Fiesta Island Cycling Crash Appears in Court
By R. Stickney ••
The woman accused of driving the wrong way on Fiesta Island and crashing into a group of cyclists, injuring many of them, appeared for a pretrial hearing Tuesday.
Theresa Owens, wore reading glasses on the top of her head and looked very different from her initial court appearance where she pleaded not guilty to a charge of felony DUI with injury and possession of a controlled substance.
San Diego police said Owens was driving her vehicle on Fiesta Island Road around 6:30 p.m. on August 12 when her car struck about 10 cyclists in a larger group finishing up a training ride.
