SAN ANTONIO – A 36-year-old woman was sentenced Wednesday to 15 years in prison for killing one person and injuring another in a drunk driving crash on April 26, 2014.
Officials with the Bexar County Criminal District Attorney's Office said Lacy Lynd Guerrero was traveling on Uhr Lane when she ran a red light and struck another vehicle.

The driver of the other vehicle was injured, suffering 11 broken ribs and a collapsed lung.
The passenger of the other vehicle, Caesar Rivera, died at a hospital a short time later.
Officials said with Guerrero's consent they drew a sample of her blood, which tested positive for methamphetamine, amphetamine and methadone.
Guerrero pleaded no contest in May to the charges of intoxication manslaughter, intoxication assault and failure to stop and render aid.
The judge Wednesday also entered a deadly weapon finding, which will require Guerrero to serve half of the 15-year sentence before becoming eligible for parole.
