Marco Bullo, 13, and his father, Andrea Bullo, owner of Moonshadows Malibu, were killed in a violent crash in Woodland Hills caused by a vehicle suspected of driving under the influence. The coroner identified both fatalities as “John Doe,” despite the fact that their identities have not been made public.
Around 9 p.m. on Tuesday, emergency crews were dispatched to the corner of West Mulholland and San Feliciano drives. When a high-speed Toyota Camry collided with a Ford Mustang driven by a father and son heading east on Mulholland Drive, the father and son were killed, according to the Los Angeles Police Department’s investigation.
Both cars were propelled into the intersection and caught fire from the impact.
Authorities found the bodies of a 60-year-old restaurant owner and his teenage son and later confirmed their deaths.
Kevin Gonzalez, the Camry’s 21-year-old driver, was found to be legally intoxicated and hospitalized after the collision. He was arrested for DUI shortly after being discharged from the hospital. The current bond for Gonzalez is $4 million.
