The accident occurred at about 7:00 AM, when a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado truck, driven by Hector Velasco of Fresno, was headed east on Church Avenue. The Chevy pickup drifted off the road, just west of Dickerson Avenue, and hit a post and a tree, then overturned.
Velasco was not wearing a seat belt and was thrown from the vehicle. He died from his injuries. A passenger in the Chevy, Darwin Gomez, also of Fresno, was wearing his seat belt and was not injured.
