Late Friday, on October 6th, a 37-year-old mother of six was killed in a suspected DUI crash. The mother, Katie Evans, was returning to her Santa Clarita residence late Friday evening. According to local newspaper, The Santa Clarita Valley Signal, she was driving in the area of Golden Valley Road and Valley Center Drive when she was struck by another vehicle that had lost control after having already sideswiped another car. Unfortunately, Evans was only a mile from home when the collision occurred. Evans was returning from the hospital where she was visiting her eight-week-old twin daughters Hannah and Sarah. Her other four children were between the ages 2 and 12-years-old. Her loved ones started a YouCaring fundraising page, and so far the page has raised more than $144,000. The 22-year-old suspected drunk driver was apprehended on suspicion of misdemeanor DUI charges, and according to local news sources were released, “pending further charges.” Authorities have yet to release the suspect’s name.
