11/13/2017

0 Comments

 
​On November 11, 2017 at 1556 hours, the driver of a 1997 Dodge RAM 1500 pickup from Truckee, CA drove at a high rate of speed, westbound on Beckwourth-Calpine Road, east of the intersection of SR-89. For an unknown reason, the driver failed to slow and stop for the stop sign at the intersection and continued westbound, across SR-89. The vehicle traveled off the west roadway edge where it plowed through a steel corral fence. The vehicle continued to travel westbound through private property at a high rate of speed and struck two additional steel fences before striking the front of a parked 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 pickup. The vehicle overturned onto its roof and came to rest on top of the parked Dodge. The driver sustained major injuries as a result of this collision and was pronounced deceased at the scene by emergency personnel. The involved party’s identification is being withheld pending notification to next of kin by the Sierra County Coroner.
