Guilty plea in hit-run that injured joggers
A homeless man pleaded guilty Wednesday to felony hit-and-run charges for driving off after striking and critically injuring two joggers last year in Dana Point.
William Todd Bradshaw, 38, could face up to four years in prison when he is sentenced later this month in the collision that left Carol Daniel and Stacy Neria with permanent disabling injuries.
Daniel and Neria, each a mother of three, were jogging with two other women in the bicycle lane on the northbound side of Pacific Coast Highway in April when they were struck by Bradshaw’s car.
The impact tossed Daniel about 60 feet, breaking her neck and pelvis and nearly severing her leg. Neria suffered a fractured skull, two broken legs and a broken pelvis, nose and cheek.
