Hope Bridge at about 11:30 p.m.  Police said Mr. Pretti was driving drunk when he lost control of his Subaru, slammed into the walls on either side of the bridge and collided with an oncoming car near the base of the bridge in Bristol. Police said Mr. MacLeod, a front seat passenger, was thrown from the car. The driver of the other car was not injured."
