 A pregnant 18-year-old woman died from injuries she received in a Highway 101 crash Wednesday morning in San Jose, but her baby was born. On his Facebook page, though, Cortes called himself a "food champion at Taco Bell." Capetillo was pregnant at the time of the accident and doctors at Valley Medical Center were able to successfully deliver her son but were unable to save her life. A baby with the last name of Capetillo was delivered at the hospital and is in critical condition. Officials were investigating the crash, including why the Honda swerved off of the road and what led Tran to pull over to the shoulder. Cortes wasn't in the Honda Civic at 1:50 a.m. when Capetillo-Hernandez swerved for an unknown reason on northbound Highway 101 just south of Tully Road and hit a BMW parked on the shoulder, according to the California Highway Patrol, (which originally reported the accident occurred on southbound 101 but corrected that Thursday).The driver of the BMW appeared drunk, CHP officers say, and it wasn't clear whether he pulled over to sleep it off or because of a mechanical problem. Hernandez’s injuries were considered minor on the scene — she had complained of leg pain, Lee said. The 20-year-old driver of the Honda, in which the 18-year-old woman was a passenger, was taken to Regional Medical Center of San Jose where he remains with moderate injuries, CHP Officer Ross Lee said. The driver of the BMW, 22-year-old Hung Tran of San Jose, was arrested on suspicion of being under the influence of alcohol and hospitalized for minor injuries, Lee said.

– An 18-year-old woman in San Jose will never get to meet her baby after she was killed in a car crash Wednesday two months before her child was due, the San Jose Mercury News reports. Doctors were able to save Dulce Capetillo's unborn baby, Christopher, and he remains in critical condition. "All she ever wanted was to hold her baby in her arms," Capetillo's friend says. Capetillo, who had recently moved in with her fiance Pedro Cortes, had picked out the name Christopher before crash. Cortes was overcome by grief Wednesday after losing the mother of his child. Capetillo's 20-year-old brother picked her up from work after midnight Wednesday. Shortly before 2am, he crashed into a BMW that was parked along the side of the highway. It's unclear why he crashed into the BMW, but police don't believe drugs or alcohol were involved. Emergency responders at the scene said Capetillo only had a minor leg injury, the San Francisco Chronicle reports. But doctors at the hospital found what KRON says were "traumatic injuries to her torso." She died in the operating room, leaving her new baby boy behind.
