Filip Handl was arrested on Thursday on suspicion of murder in a suspected DUI-related collision. His stepdaughter died after Handl's vehicle backed over her. Authorities do not believe that the Handl intended to hit his stepdaughter, but meant to drive forward instead, crashing into the victim as she stood in the driveway. Handl was driving while under the influence of alcohol, and he admitted in his statements to authorities to having done so before, causing his stepdaughter's death. Police arrived to find a woman, underneath a truck. The woman was not breathing and had no pulse.

A driver, suspected off being under the influence, lost control of their vehicle crashed in front the Cliff House in San Francisco Thursday morning. The roads were slick with rain but police said it was probably the suspected drinking of the driver that caused a single-vehicle collision. The driver of an Silver BMW SUV drove down Point Lobos Avenue but failed to negotiate the turn at the Cliff House plowing over a sign post, smashing though a parked pickup truck and demolishing a concrete planter before finally coming to rest in front of the building.
