Opinion

ELKINGTON, J.

We issued an alternative writ of mandate on application of the People in order to review an order of the superior court suppressing evidence of (1) a statement made by Kenneth Wayne Tunch and (2) certain physical evidence, an automobile owned by him. The order was based on the superior court’s determination that Tunch’s Miranda (Miranda v. Arizona (1966) 384 U.S. 436 [16 L.Ed.2d 694, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 10 A.L.R.3d 974]) rights were violated by failure of a police officer to admonish him according to that authority prior to a custodial interrogation.

A fatal “felony hit-run”…
