Passenger in Chevrolet was pronounced dead on the scene

A woman from Oklahoma died in a car accident on the Interstate 805 through Chula Vista, California Highway Patrol reported. The incident occurred around 10:20 p.m. on May 27 when a Chevrolet SUV driven by a 38-year-old woman veered and crashed with a Toyota pickup truck in the right lane north of Telegraph Canyon Road. Both vehicles overturned as a result of the crash, and one passenger was ejected from the Chevrolet.

The victim was identified as a 42-year-old resident from Chickasha, OK who was pronounced dead at the scene by authorities. The driver of the Toyota, described as an 18-year-old woman, did not suffer any injuries during the incident.

CHP closed down four lanes of I-805 southbound after Saturday night's collision while they investigated its cause and sequence of events. It is still unknown if driving under influence played any role in this tragedy.

This story serves as yet another reminder to always stay alert while behind the wheel to prevent accidents like these from happening again in our communities.
