A CHP unit stopped a wrong way driver on Highway 101 in Santa Barbara County by ramming the vehicle.

Woman dies more than a week after attack.

A brutal attack on a Ventura County woman which led to the arrest of her son has now turned into a murder investigation.

Alison Marshal was assaulted in her Newbury Park home November 19.

Her 21-year-old son, Scott Goldberg, was arrested at the scene. He was charged with assault with a deadly weapon, and attempted murder.

 The 63-year-old woman died December 1.

Autopsy results are pending. Goldberg could potentially face additional charges as a result of his mother’s death.
