A Fresno man was killed Friday afternoon in a three-vehicle crash in Kings County.
The California Highway Patrol said the collision happened just before 1 p.m. on Highway 43 just north of Grangeville Boulevard in the Hanford area.
CHP said the 25-year-old Fresno man was driving a Nissan on northbound Highway 43 at an unknown rate of speed. A driver in a Peterbilt was southbound Highway 43 and another driver was in a Chevrolet following the Peterbilt.
The Nissan veered to the right onto the dirt/gravel shoulder then overcorrected, sideswiping the Peterbilt then spinning into the path of the Chevrolet, CHP said.
The 25-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene.
It is not clear if the other drivers sustained any injuries.
It is unknown if alcohol or drugs were a factor in the collision, CHP said.
