A Squaw Valley man, 77, was driving a 1985 Nissan, headed east on Manning Avenue. The driver was reported to have not stopped at the intersection of Manning and S. Hills Valley Road.
The Nissan crashed into a 2000 Toyota, driven by a 27 year old man from Orange Cove, who was traveling southbound on Hills Valley. Authorities reported that both vehicles overturned, and at least one of them caught fire.
The 77 year old man was taken to Community Regional Medical Center, in Fresno. He was pronounced dead while in the hospital.
The Toyota's driver sustained minor injuries. He was taken by ambulance to Reedley Hospital.
There was a passenger in each of the vehicles, and both were also hospitalized.
While our
condolences go out to the friends and family of the victim, we recognize that
no monetary sum can ease the pain and loss felt after a tragedy such as this.
However, just monetary compensation can help ease the burden of medical bills,
final expenses, and help support any dependents left behind by the deceased.
