Sanger man, 30, killed in a head-on crash in Fresno County, CHP says. Two others injured
The California Highway Patrol is investigating a head-on collision that killed a man early Sunday morning.
Officers responded to the area of Highway 180, west of George Smith Road near Yokuts Valley around 5:30 a.m. after receiving an iPhone crash notification.
CHP Sgt. Christopher Swanberg said the driver of a Chevrolet Equinox was going eastbound on Highway 180 when he went into the westbound lane and went head-on with a Toyota Tundra.
The driver of the Chevrolet — a 30-year-old from Sanger — was pronounced dead at the scene. The two people in the other vehicle were taken to Community Regional Medical Center for lacerations to their hands and one had a broken arm, Swanberg said.
Swanberg said the roadway is a straightaway.
Alcohol or drugs don’t appear to be a factor, Swanberg said
The collision is an ongoing investigation.
