Two men walking on road hit by truck in early morning collision in Clovis, CHP says

Two young men were hospitalized with life-threatening injuries after getting struck by a truck early Friday in Clovis.

According to CHP spokesman Mike Salas, a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado was headed west on West Shepherd Avenue approaching North Peach Avenue when it hit the men — an 18-year-old and and a 19-year-old, Salas said — walking west on Shepherd, directly in the path of the truck around 4:30 a.m.

The men were transported to Valley Children’s Healthcare with major injuries, Salas said.

The driver of the truck remained on the scene and officers don’t alcohol was a factor.

The investigation is ongoing.
