A 34-year-old Anaheim woman was in custody Thursday on suspicion of felony drunk driving after her car hit a father and daughter crossing a Stanton street, killing the man, sheriff’s officials said.
Nasario Romero Miranda, 57, of Stanton was pronounced dead at Midwood Hospital in Stanton on Wednesday. His daughter, Gloria Maria Romero, 24, received several injuries and was treated at Humana West Hospital in Anaheim. She was released Thursday, a hospital spokeswoman said.
