One person was killed and four others were injured in an allegedly alcohol-induced accident in Santa Maria early Sunday morning.

Just after midnight, there was a crash at Railroad Avenue and Donovan Road. Officers arrived at the scene and found two vehicles with major damage.

Emergency responders transported five people to Marian Regional Medical Center. One of the individuals died at the hospital.
