A hotel employee was arrested for DUI on Thursday after he was allegedly tested with a blood alcohol level of .280 percent, which is over the legal limit of .08 percent when his vehicle collided with another vehicle.<\/p>\n
The auto accident occurred at the traffic light of the MSV Building in Chalan Kanoa at the intersection of Beach Road and Tun Segundo.<\/p>\n
Franklin S. Fujihira was driving a 2004 gold Mitsubishi Outlander with two passengers. One passenger refused treatment while a second passenger was admitted to the Commonwealth Health Center for severe injuries and currently in the Intensive Care Unit.<\/p>\n
The driver of the 2015 white Toyota Prius along with two passengers were transported to CHC where they were treated and released with minor injuries.<\/p>\n
Both vehicles were heading south in the inner lane on Beach Road. The Mitsubishi was traveling at a higher speed than the posted 35 miles-per hour speed limit when it struck the Prius from behind. <\/p>\n
The police report stated that Fujihira and the two passengers are employees of Saipan World Resort. The co-workers attended their employee Christmas party earlier in the evening. After the party, the co-workers relocated to Susupe Beach Park.
\nThey were believed to have consumed alcoholic beverages at both locations.
