The CHP arrested a repeat DUI offender in a two-injury crash on the 41. (CHP)

A Fresno County Sheriff’s deputy witnessed the incident and attempted to warn other drivers, but the crash occurred before the wrong-way vehicle could be stopped.

The suspect, a repeat DUI offender, was arrested and booked into Fresno County Jail. His identity wasn’t revealed by authorities.
