A 27-year-old motorcyclist faces drunken driving charges for allegedly causing a crash on Interstate 280 in Burlingame on Sunday night, according to the California Highway Patrol.

David Ezeogu, of Millbrae, was placed under arrest at Stanford Hospital, where he was taken to be treated for internal bleeding following the crash, CHP Officer Art Montiel said.

According to the CHP, Ezeogu was driving a Honda motorcycle at a high rate of speed on southbound Interstate 280 with a 21-year-old female passenger, also a resident of Millbrae.

At about 8:30 p.m., Ezeogu's motorcycle clipped the rear of a Subaru just south of Trousdale Avenue, CHP officials said.

Ezeogu allegedly then swerved to the right and collided with the rear of a Toyota Prius. Both Ezeogu and his passenger were ejected in the collision, according to the CHP.

The passenger suffered minor cuts and bruises, according to the CHP.

Ezeogu was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol and causing injury to another person.

The crash remains under investigation by the CHP.

Anyone who might have witnessed the incident is asked to call CHP Officer Watson at (650) 369-6261.
