A 21-year-old woman died in Fullerton and three others were badly injured after a truck veered into oncoming traffic and slammed into the sedan she was driving Wednesday morning, Jan. 27.
Fullerton Police report that their preliminary investigation into the fatal crash suggests a black Chevrolet Silverado was moving erratically on northbound Magnolia Avenue when it veered into southbound lanes near Valencia Drive. It collided head-on with a white Toyota Corolla before flipping over and striking a Ford Edge. Meanwhile, the Corolla spun out and hit a Nissan Altima.
Firefighters were seen using saws and heavy equipment to free the occupants of the wrecked Toyota while the Chevy that crashed into it sat upside down in the middle of the intersection in footage recorded at the scene. The 21-year-old driver of the crushed sedan was then taken to a hospital, where she was later pronounced dead. Her identity was not immediately released.
