A Kenworth semi truck, driven by Alonso Hernandez of Los Angeles, slammed into a red, 2003 Kia Sephia sedan from behind, at the intersection of Manning Avenue and Fowler Avenue. The tractor-trailer pushed the car through the intersection, and into a telephone pole.
The big rig then hit another semi truck, driven by Julio Valenzuela, of Reedley, a short distance away, at Manning and Golden State Boulevard. Hernandez then proceeded to leave the scene of the accident, and continued on to a gas station on Highway 99, and Manning Avenue.
Once at the gas station, Hernandez left his vehicle and fled on foot. The California Highway Patrol arrested him a short while later.

Alonso Hernandez faces charges of driving under the influence, felony hit and run, and vehicular manslaughter.
