A serial hit-and-run driver has been taken off the Valley roads, the Arizona Department of Public Safety said Tuesday.
Rosendo Duenas, 46, of Phoenix is accused of 10 collisions that caused damage estimated at more than $100,000. Half of the alleged incidents took place in Phoenix, while the other five were on the Valley’s freeway system.
One of the highway crashes was a serious injury collision with a motorcycle, DPS said.
Duenas was arrested Saturday night in Tempe following a hit-and-run on Loop 202 near Rural Road. As the Tempe police officer processed him for a suspected DUI, it was learned the Ford Expedition driven by Duenas was a suspect vehicle in the previous crashes.
Duenas was booked on 12 counts of endangerment, aggravated assault and Super DUI.
