A new mugshot shows Dharmesh Patel, a California doctor accused of intentionally driving a Tesla off a cliff on Jan. 2 with his wife and two children inside the vehicle, with a bloodshot eye after he was transported to a San Mateo County jail from the hospital.

Patel, 41, of Pasadena, is charged with three counts of attempted first-degree attempted murder, as well as enhancements for great bodily injury and domestic abuse, San Mateo District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said during a Monday press conference.

"The evidence supports that he intentionally drove that vehicle over that cliff," San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said during a Monday press conference after Patel's initial court hearing.

Patel will enter a plea on Feb. 9 and is currently being held without bail.
