Police said that at about 5 a.m. May 20 officers responded to a traffic collision at Park and Drexel. One of the two vehicles involved was a 2003 Chevrolet Malibu. The man and woman in the car were pronounced dead at the scene. The second car, the 2008 Jetta, was unoccupied.
The two people killed were identified as Joanne Berg, 62, and David Lowell Berg, 62.
Detectives determined the Bergs' Malibu was northbound in the median lane on Park and as the vehicle entered the intersection of Drexel it was struck by the eastbound Jetta.
Witnesses said the driver of the Jetta, now identified as Garcia-Pineda, and a passenger got out of the vehicle and ran away.
