ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Albuquerque police are investigating a deadly overnight crash Sunday.

The crash happened on Paseo del Norte and the I-25 southbound on-ramp. 

APD officers say a driver was going westbound on Paseo, and tried to change lanes to avoid a car coming toward them, going the wrong way, but the cars collided.

A passenger, who was in the car going in the correct direction, died at the scene. 

Police officers believe the driver going the wrong direction may have been impaired. Police identified that suspect as Adamaris Martinez.

Martinez allegedly admitted to drinking multiple alcoholic beverages before driving. Officers also reportedly noticed signs of intoxication and said she performed poorly on a sobriety test.

Martinez now faces charges of DWI resulting in great bodily harm and driving on divided highways.
