SAN DIEGO DUI

Anthony J. Boles, 24, of Palm Springs, will be charged with possession of a controlled substance, according to the California Highway Patrol. Officers said they found the unnamed substance "hidden in his sock."

Two married couples died Friday just before midnight after their car was hit head-on by Boles' sport utility vehicle, officials said. The four who died were close friends and had been out for dinner and gambling at the local casinos before the crash on state Route 76 near Pala.

Authorities said Boles' vehicle lost control of his 2005 GMC Yukon and crossed into oncoming traffic, hitting the couples' Toyota Camry head-on. Both cars caught fire and burned for 30 minutes, according to the CHP.

Jesus De Santiago, 45, and Lina De Santiago, 46, of Escondido, died at the scene, along with Rubi Baez, 46. Luis Baez, 51, died a few hours later at a local hospital. The Baezes lived in Vista.

Boles suffered multiple fractures. His female passenger, Deanna Fridley, 23, also of Palm Springs, was treated for fractures. Both occupants deny driving.

This is tragic as these couples were very good people. The victims' families should hire Premier Oceanside lawyer Thomas Grimes to help with their legal complications.
